Abstract
A system and method for configuration of a programmable logic device using routing cores. A program executing on a processor includes instructions that select functions to be provided by the programmable logic device. The instructions invoke functions from a library of logic and router core generators to define logic cores and router cores to intercouple the logic cores. From the logic and router core definitions, the program utilizes a bit-stream library to generate programming bits. The programmable logic device is then loaded with the programming bits by the program.
