DESCRIPTION
flatbeh synthetize a VHDL behavioral data-flow description from a structural description. It flattens the structural description (it can be
a hierarchy of macro block) until the cells which have a behavioral description. Then it raise all the equations and create a behavioral
description of the root file.
PARAMETERS
root_structural_file is the filename of the root of the structural description file.
output_file is the destination filename for behavioural description.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
MBK_CATA_LIB list of directories containing descriptions. The default path is the current directory (see mbk(1)).
MBK_CATAL_NAME Indicates the file where the behavioral description files are given. This serves to flatbeh to stop the flatten of the
structural root circuit.(see mbk(1))
MBK_IN_LO file extension for structural entity. (see mbk(1))
EXAMPLE
flatbeh adder_32
