3.1.5 Create New CUPL Simulation Input File

The next step in the design development process is to create a new CUPL Simulation Input (.SI) file using the built-in text editor in WinCUPL II. This file is used by the CUPL simulator to run a functional simulation of the CUPL design.

In WinCUPL II, select the Design Flow tab and then click the NEW/EDIT button under Simulation File Manager to launch the text editor. The software will automatically create a new CUPL Simulation Input file named AND_2.si, based on the file name used for the project file.

Enter the following text into the text editor:
Note: The CUPL compiler and simulator require a carriage return to be present at the end of the CUPL design and simulation input files.

In the text editor, select File ➔ Save to save the CUPL Simulation Input file. This file will be saved as AND_2.si in the AND_2 project directory (for example, \WinCUPL\Tutorial\Tutorial_1).
