4.2.2 Generated Files View

This view displays the generated files that the tool makes in the background. The files are in order the .cir that is used to run simulation. the .hex file that is pushed to the programmer, and the save file.

Generated Files View Figure 4-29 Generated Files View

Each file has a hyperlink that upon being clicked opens a file preview window.

Shown in Figure 4-30 is the program.hex for a configuration. The file preview is currently set into the No Diff mode meaning the preview is showing exlusively the latest version of that file. Clicking the three vertical dots at the top right of the file preview opens a popup to select different types of Diff modes.

In unified diff mode, shown in Figure 4-31, the new text is highlighted in green while the old text is highlighted in red above the new text. In side-by-side diff, shown in Figure 4-32, the old text is shown on the left, with the changes highlighted in red, while the new text is shown on the right with the changes highlighted in green.
