Hello, National instruments has introduced new module in their labview 8 for programming the xilinx FPGA chips. It converts the labview programs into VHDL . It can borrow image processing libraries from the labview too. I was wondering that if somebody has used this module form labview can give me details about it. Thanks Regards John

Hi, I posted in multiple groups becuase the fuzzy nature of the question. The question belongs to labview people, VHDL people and hardware FPGA people plus its my right to post question in any group I want. IF U DONT WANT TO ANSWER IT THEN DO NOT BOTHER OK!

That way people who subscribe to all these groups don't have to read and re-read your question and get frustrated (like Marco no doubt just did).> plus its my right to post question in any group I want. > IF U DONT WANT TO ANSWER IT THEN DO NOT BOTHER OK!Yeah, yeah, we all have rights. There's no need to shout... :) Cheers, -Ben-

please don't post in multiple newsgroup and relax yourself.

What good do you do? Multiple newsgroups are required for this question, he simply didn't cross-post "properly." Who besides you cares? I just hate to see someone steered away from any newsgroup because of bad experiences. Why try to use a newsgroup where people are condesending or hostile? That's the last I'll comment in this thread. I just wish I could help with the original question. - John_H

I initially thought the class was some kind of joke, but yes, they were actually using LabView to generate code for an FPGA. After sitting and watching a guy make a shift register I left the class with my inital impression of the class, its a joke. I can look at a schematic and tell a circuit is a shift register, I can look at VHDL/Verilog code and see a shift register, but that mess of LabView crud they hade on the screen looked NOTHING like a shift register. I know this is pretty much version 1 of their FPGA software, but it will take much more work before it is ever usefull as a design tool. I can't see how this will ever catch on for LabView...

They are possible in theory, but in practice they are generally terrible.
