Abstract

A method is described herein for generating a design file corresponding to a design entity in a logic design. An input and an output are specified for the design entity. A design file type is specified. The design file is created and a design file template corresponding to the design file type is copied into the design file. The design file template includes formatting corresponding to the design file type. The input and the output are instantiated in the design file. The designer may then completely specify the design entity in the design file.
