Our site licence has now expired and Mentor will not renew it. Anyone have any experience of Impulse C? I'm drawn to the CSP based architecture

I think DK is not (yet) obsolete but barely alive, the latest version is 
5.4_1 released back in 2011. Nowadays anybody interested in 
C/C++/SystemC synthesis will have a wide choice from free to CatapultC.

do you still have access to Mentor Graphics DK Design Suite 5? I thought this was now obsolete

It's very easy use interfaces for inputs and outputs in your Handel-C code. Then change the debug option into VHDL or Verilog or EDIF or SystemC. Be sure to use Mentor Graghics DK Design Suite 5.

Hi Ahmed,
Can you tell me how did you generate VHDL from Handel-C?? I'm working on the conversion from c++ to vhdl with handel-c but i didn't know how to do it..
Thanks

Hi Ahmed,

There is not much info to go on. I assume you are using Handel-c because 
of some existing (Celoxica) hardware? If you are just after C synthesis 
then I would suggest you look at Hercules, Xilinx HLS, synflow etc or 
swap to a more traditional RTL languages.

Do any of the demo files work? There is a simple led toggle example in 
the ./examples/pal/led directory.

Good luck,
Hans
