NAME
     FreeHDL-V2CC - A VHDL to C++ converter.

SYNOPSIS
     freehdl-v2cc [OPTION] ... [FILE] ...

DESCRIPTION
     FreeHDL  is  a parser/compiler/simulator suite for the hardware description
     language VHDL.  VHDL'93 as well as VHDL'87 files are supported.

     FreeHDL-V2CC translates the original VHDL source FILEs into C++.

OPTIONS
     -o FILE
	    Write C++ generated code to FILE.

     -n     Dry run.

     -R     Emit register code.

     -v     Enable verbosity.

     -g     Emit debugging code.

     -D     Emit CDFG code.

     -l LIBNAME
	    Use LIBNAME as the WORK library, default is the "."  library  direc-
	    tory.

     --relaxed-component-visibility
	    Allows invisible default bindings from WORK.

     --depend FILE
	    Write dependency information to FILE.

     -m FILE
	    Emit the main() file C++ code to FILE.

     -L VHDLLIB
	    Path to VHDL library root directory.  Within this directory the com-
	    piler search for a file named v2cc.libs.  The mapping file v2cc.libs
	    translates	library  unit names to directories.  Note that more than
	    one VHDLLIB may be provided.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
     V2CC_LIBRARY_PATH
	    The variable V2CC_LIBRARY_PATH consists of ":" separated  filenames.
	    In addition to the environment variable, you can use the "-L libdir"
	    command  line option with v2cc.  The directories specified with "-L"
	    are added in front of the ones specified by  V2CC_LIBRARY_PATH.   In
	    the final library path, they appear in the same order as on the com-
	    mand line.
