Hi Oussama,
Thanks for putting the document together.
In the future, please just post a link to the document, so that the
160kB attachment doesn't come through the list.
Sorry about that, I forgot that the attachement was sent to the whole mailing list.
Also, there's no need to edit all the files to change the relative
include path specified in usrp_std.v:
This is not required:
`include "/../../../firmware/include/[name].v" will need to be changed to
`include "c:\usrp\include\[name].v"
You might have to edit the project property that sets the top of the
include path. Actually I don't think you should even have to do that,
since I know that Matt and I build this code from different
directories and don't change anything.
Eric
Yeah, that's one of the things I will fix in the document. It's just easier to copy the whole usrp file to the PC. Otherwise, doing it the way I did, it wouldn't compile unless I change the include statements.
Please let me know if you have any other suggestions for changes or additions to the document.
Thank you,
Oussama.
