We just uploaded GPL Cver 1.10g with support for Windows using
Cygwin to www.pragmatic-c.com/gpl-cver site. There is now a makefile for
Cygwin and PLI works with Cygwin release 1.55 and earlier. Parameter code
has been rewritten to match XL for both pound and defparams. Hopefully,
this answers the posts that were critical of GPL Cver.
Also, we think Cver is comparable in speed to XL for realistic designs.
It can be slower for designs that do not use SDF and path delays and timing
checks because Cver does not flatten designs. This is reason Cver requires
much less memory than other simulators at the cost that simulation when
there are few scheduled events is slower.
We are working on speed improvements and would appreciate bug reports
if you can send us the Verilog source for designs that you think are
particularly slow.
