manchali has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello , I am new to Perl and have installed Verilog-perl on my linux.I wanted to display the mapping of connections of signals going from one module to another(incase their name is changed in the module it goes).Is there a way to do this?I would really appreciate if anyone could shed a light on how to go about for doing this.!

    G'day manchali,

    Welcome to the Monastery.

    Firstly, I'll let you know upfront that I don't know about Verilog so I probably can't provide any direct help. Having said that, I have seen it discussed here previously, so there are other monks who probably can help. I'll front-page your question to give it a bit more exposure and to avoid it falling off the radar over the weekend: you may have to wait until next week until someone knowledgeable gets around to reading it.

    I did have a look at the documentation for Verilog-Perl. Have you read this? Can you formulate a more specific question based on this? The link to vrename looked promising. Its description starts:

    "Vrename will allow a signal to be changed across all levels of the design hierarchy, or to create a cross reference of signal names. (It actually includes module names, macros, and other definitions, so those can be changed too.)"

    Is that any help to you?

    And, as haukex has already indicated, the more information you provide, the better the help we can provide. Please do follow the links he provided.
