1 Introduction This manual provides reference material for using AutoCode to write production quality code using graphical tools. Together with the AutoCode User Guide and the Template Programming Language User Guide, AutoCode documentation describes how to generate robust, high-quality, real-time C or Ada source code from SystemBuild block diagrams. Manual Organization This manual includes the following chapters: � Chapter 1, Introduction, provides an overview of the rapid prototyping con

Chapter 1 Introduction � Chapter 8, AutoCode Sim Cdelay Scheduler, discusses the Sim Cdelay low-latency scheduler. � Chapter 9, Global Scope Signals and Parameterless Procedures, discusses additional signals and procedures. This guide also has an Index. General Information As an integral part of the rapid prototyping concept, AutoCode lets you generate high-level language code from a SystemBuild block diagram model quickly, automatically, and without programming skills. The AutoCode User Gu

Chapter 1 Introduction Structure and Content of the Generated Code This reference includes detailed descriptions about what is generated for many of the blocks used within a model. Also, the framework of the generated code is discussed to show how all of the pieces work together to form an executable simulation. This discussion is only relevant to those designers who are either writing their own templates or who are striving to optimize the generated code. Topics include the following: � G

2 C Language Reference This chapter discusses files used to interface AutoCode and the generated C code to your specific platform and target processor. This chapter also describes target-specific utilities needed for simulation and testing. Stand-Alone Simulation The template provided for C code generation produces code that, when compiled and linked with stand-alone files, forms a stand-alone simulation. This simulation can be executed with MATRIXx-style data as input, and produces results
