3.1.4 Compile Design

After creating the new CUPL design file (AND_2.pld) and setting up the compiler options, the next step is to compile the newly created CUPL design.

In WinCUPL II, under the Design Flow tab, click the COMPILE button under Design Compilation to compile the CUPL design.

Figure 3-10. Design Compilation

At the end of the compilation process, a message prompt indicating that the design has been successfully compiled will appear. This message is also shown in the Message section of the WinCUPL II window, as well as in the LOG file.

After successfully compiling a CUPL design, all the files generated during the compilation process will appear under the Project Tree section of the WinCUPL II window. You can open these files in the built-in text editor by double clicking a file in the Project Tree.
