Can SystemC diplay circuits as a drawing?

Question

I need to design some digital circuits , but it kills me drawing them by hand. I've searched a easier way to do them, and found VHDL and what's more interesting SystemC. The last one is pretty nice and easy to understand but i need to be able to print the results in a Visual Representation of the circuit.

Is the SystemC able to print the circuit as a Drawing?

Answer 1

SystemC is a language and not a tool. You have to find a environment which provides tools for SystemC such as this one : http://www.mirabilisdesign.com/Pages/Product/mdi_SC.htm

But you also have the free ISE form Xilinx for VHDL : http://www.xilinx.com/support/download/index.htm These are great and reliable tools.

Answer 2

No, SystemC is only a C++ library, but GBL Design Studio additionally has a graphical designer and tracer, all in one package.
