|
|
|
|
> This is accomplished by specifying a single source for the register description from which all views can be automatically generated,

The editor is build on top of [Eclipse Xtext](http://www.eclipse.org/Xtext/), a framework to build **D**omain **S**pecific **L**anguages (DSL).

|
It has a code generator to create the register models using the [SC-Components](https://minres.github.io/SystemC-Components/) library.
|
|
|
|
|
Due to the nature of Xtext this generator can easily be tailored to various needs.
