Hardware Debugger Tool for Notepad++

Hi guys,

Just wanted to publish my new innovative plugin for Hardware designers for Notepad++:

www.hwdebugger.com

You can choose in which software do you wish to compile with, and also offers a hover-over tool tip capability + 'Add Object' user interface, to add signals and constants via GUI.

Regards,

Roy

    Can I suggest that you try and get it added to the Notepad++ plugin manager. Your download links don't work on IE.

    Also, found a bug for you - it doesn't handle filenames with spaces in them correctly. It passes them to the quartus map utility without quotes so it ends up trying to compile incomplete filenames and errors out.

    Still, seems like a useful tool. Thanks!

    Thank you very much.

    I'll fix the bugs ASAP.

    Regarding the plugin manager, it'll take some time untill it will show up there (not up to me).

    For example: "C:\Example\With Space\InPath.v". The Quartus Map tool returns something along the lines of "file: Space\InPath.v not found"
