Creating a GUI for my SOPC component

Hello folks,  

 

I looked for this issue in this forum and didn't find the information. 

I want to create a GUI for my SOPC component where the user can select some "Parameter Settings". For example, the UART module has baudrate, parity, data bits, etc that are configurable on a GUI screen. I'd like to make something similar. Is there an easy way to do that? :confused:  

 

Thanks in advance, 

 

Willian

You have two options 

 

1 - Use the TCL script to create your component. This will provide you with basic GUI functionality and will likely provide everything you need. Read chapters 6 & 7 of the following:

2 - Really write your own GUI (C#, Java, etc.) and interface to your TCL script via the standard IO streams. This is obviously more involved.
