Netlist::Port(3)

NAME
Verilog::Netlist::Port - Port for a Verilog Module

SYNOPSIS
  use Verilog::Netlist;

  ...
  my $port = $module->find_port('pinname');
  print $port->name;

DESCRIPTION
A Verilog::Netlist::Port object is created by Verilog::Netlist::Module for every port connection in the module.

ACCESSORS
See also Verilog::Netlist::Subclass for additional accessors and methods.

$self->array
    Any array declaration for the port. This only applies to Verilog 1995 style ports which can declare port bits independently from the signal declarations. When using Verilog 2001 style ports, see the matching net declaration's data_type, msb and lsb methods instead, for example "$module-"find_net($port->name)->data_type>.

$self->comment
    Returns any comments following the definition. keep_comments=>1 must be passed to Verilog::Netlist::new for comments to be retained.

$self->data_type
    The SystemVerilog data type of the port.

$self->direction
    The direction of the port: "in", "out", or "inout".

$self->module
    Reference to the Verilog::Netlist::Module the port is in.

$self->name
    The name of the port.

$self->net
    Reference to the Verilog::Netlist::Net the port connects to. Only valid after the netlist is linked.

$self->type
    Approximately an alias of data_type for backward compatibility. Do not use for new applications.

MEMBER FUNCTIONS
See also Verilog::Netlist::Subclass for additional accessors and methods.

$self->dump
    Prints debugging information for this port.
