how to get started?

how to get started?

[Michael Hosemann]

Hello,

i just began looking at cgen and intend to use it as a modelling tool for a digital signal processor. 

so far i got guile 1.4 and cgen1.0 installed but when starting guile and performing the steps mentioned in porting opcode of the manual i get the following:

cgen-1.0/cgen> guile
guile> load "dev.scm"
#<procedure load-module (filename)>
guile> "dev.scm"
guile> load-opc
ERROR: In expression load-opc:
ERROR: Unbound variable: load-opc
ABORT: (unbound-variable)
 
Type "(backtrace)" to get more information or "(debug)" to enter the debugger.
guile> backtrace
#<primitive-procedure backtrace>
guile>

do i need to set any include path? are there any information available on how to get started? the running cgen chapter of the manual is still missing :-(. and the faq wasnt exactly a whole lot of info either...

thanks

michael

Yes, that's a good use.


: [how to port opcodes?]

The canonical way is not to run cgen interactively.  Rather, one would
proceed by cloning an existing cgen-based opcodes port, including the
opcodes/configure*, Makefile* parts that run cgen in batch mode.
