Abstract: Generating a hardware description for a programmable hardware element based on a graphical program including multiple models of computation. A graphical program may be received which includes a first portion having a first computational model and a second portion having a second computational model. A hardware description may be generated based on the graphical program. The hardware description may describe a hardware implementation of the graphical program. The hardware description may be configured to configure a programmable hardware element to implement functionality of the graphical program.

Abstract: Analyzing code written in a loosely typed language. User input specifying code for a script may be received. The specified code may be analyzed. More specifically, one or more code portions referenced by the specified code may be determined. Properties of symbols of the specified code and the one or more code portions may also be determined. Additionally, the specified code may be analyzed using the determined properties to determine errors in the specified code. Accordingly, one or more errors may be graphically indicated based on said analyzing. Receiving the user input, analyzing the specified code, and graphically indicating the one or more errors may be performed at edit time.

Abstract: Providing target specific information for textual code at edit time. Input specifying textual code or the textual code itself may be received. The textual code may be specified for a target device. The textual code may be analyzed to determine information regarding execution of the textual code on the target device. The information may regard at least one statement of the textual code. The information may be provided for display. The analysis and provision of information may be performed at edit time.

Abstract: System and method for debugging a graphical program deployed to hardware. The graphical program may be received. The graphical program may include a plurality of nodes and connections between the nodes which visually represents functionality of the graphical program. A hardware description may be generated based on the graphical program. The hardware description may describe a hardware implementation of the graphical program. The hardware description may be deployed to the programmable hardware element and the programmable hardware element may be executed. The graphical program may be displayed on a display of a host computer system that is coupled to the programmable hardware element. Debugging information may be received from the programmable hardware element during the executing. The debugging information from the programmable hardware element may be displayed in the graphical program displayed on the display.

A graphical program may be received which includes a first portion of a first physical domain for simulating a first portion of a physical system. The graphical program may include a second portion of a second physical domain for simulating a second portion of the physical system. A hardware description may be generated based on the graphical program. The hardware description may describe a hardware implementation of the graphical program. The hardware description may be configured to configure a programmable hardware element to simulate the physical system.

Abstract: Automatic conversion of textual program code to graphical program code is performed. The method automatically translates the given functionality of a textual program code into executable graphical program code, corresponding to the same functionality. The method includes a parsing routine that generates a syntax tree and code generation routines, which create graphical program code from the syntax tree.
