4.1 ARMulator models
ARMulator comprises a collection of models that simulate ARM-based hardware. They
enable you to benchmark, develop, and debug software before your hardware is
available.
4.1.1 Configuring models through ToolConf
ARMulator models are configured through
ToolConf
.
ToolConf
is a database of tags and
values that ARMulator reads from configuration files (
.dsc
and
.ami
files) during
initialization (see ToolConf on page 4-68).
A number of functions are provided for looking up values from this database. The full
set of functions is defined in
install_directory\ARMulate\clx\toolconf.h
. All the
functions take an opaque handle called a
toolconf
.
