Verilog::Netlist::Interface(3) Interface within a Verilog Netlist

SYNOPSIS


use Verilog::Netlist;
...
my $interface = $netlist->find_interface('name');
my $cell = $self->find_cell('name')
my $port = $self->find_port('name')
my $net = $self->find_net('name')

DESCRIPTION

A Verilog::Netlist::Interface object is created by Verilog::Netlist for every interface in the design.

ACCESSORS

See also Verilog::Netlist::Subclass for additional accessors and methods.
$self->comment
Returns any comments following the definition. keep_comments=>1 must be passed to Verilog::Netlist::new for comments to be retained.
$self->find_port_by_index
Returns the port name associated with the given index.
$self->modports
Returns list of references to Verilog::Netlist::ModPort in the interface.
$self->modports_sorted
Returns list of references to Verilog::Netlist::ModPort in the interface sorted by name.
$self->name
The name of the interface.
$self->netlist
Reference to the Verilog::Netlist the interface is under.
$self->nets
Returns list of references to Verilog::Netlist::Net in the interface.
$self->nets_sorted
Returns list of name sorted references to Verilog::Netlist::Net in the interface.
$self->nets_and_ports_sorted
Returns list of name sorted references to Verilog::Netlist::Net and Verilog::Netlist::Port in the interface.
$self->ports
Returns list of references to Verilog::Netlist::Port in the interface.
$self->ports_ordered
Returns list of references to Verilog::Netlist::Port in the interface sorted by pin number.
$self->ports_sorted
Returns list of references to Verilog::Netlist::Port in the interface sorted by name.

MEMBER FUNCTIONS

See also Verilog::Netlist::Subclass for additional accessors and methods.
$self->find_net(name)
Returns Verilog::Netlist::Net matching given name.
$self->level
Returns the reverse depth of this interface with respect to other modules and interfaces. See also Netlist's modules_sorted_level.
$self->lint
Checks the interface for errors.
$self->link
Creates interconnections between this interface and other interfaces.
$self->new_net
Creates a new Verilog::Netlist::Net.
$self->dump
Prints debugging information for this interface.
$self->verilog_text
Returns verilog code which represents this interface. Returned as an array that must be joined together to form the final text string. The netlist must be already ->link'ed for this to work correctly.
