Specify prefix for DUT module or entity name
'
prefix name
'
Default: ''
Specify a prefix for every module or entity name in the generated HDL code as a character vector. HDL Coder™ also applies this prefix to generated script file names.
You can specify the module name prefix to avoid name collisions if you plan to instantiate the generated HDL code multiple times in a larger system.
For example, suppose you have a DUT, myDut
,
containing an internal module, myUnit
. You can
prefix the modules within your design with unit1_
,
by entering the following command:
hdlset_param ('path/to/myDut', 'ModulePrefix','unit1_')
unit1_myDut
and unit1_myUnit
,
with corresponding HDL file names. Generated script file names also
have the unit1_
prefix.To set this property, use hdlset_param
or makehdl
. To view the property value, use hdlget_param
.
