Linking and displaying signals of a device for hardware simulation and elements of a listing of a program

摘要

The invention relates to a system and a method for linking and displaying signals (4, 5) of a device for hardware simulation (1) and elements (15) of a listing (2) of a program (3) and a troubleshooting tool. In order to enable a common representation of the signals of the hardware simulation device and the program listing elements, it is proposed that the hardware simulation device (1) has the behavior of a circuit (6) with a processor (7) Program memory (8) which contains the program code (9) of the program (3) and simulates application - specific hardware components (10) and generates signals (4, 5) as a result of the simulation that the elements (15) of the listing (2) of the Program (3) with the in the simulated execution of the program memory (8) contained, with these elements (15) corresponding program code (9) generated signals (4, 5) are linked and that the elements (15) of the listing (2) the program (3) in a first portion (11) of a graphical display means (14) and the signals (4, 5) in a second portion (12) of the display means (14) can be displayed.
