Automatically generating a graphical data flow program based on a circuit diagram
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer accessible memory medium comprising program instructions for configuring a first hardware device, wherein the program instructions are executable to:
- display a first diagram including a hardware configuration node in response to user input selecting the hardware configuration node;
bind the hardware configuration node with the first hardware device in response to user input selecting the first hardware device;
receive user input selecting a hardware resource from a set of available hardware resources of the first hardware device;
update the hardware configuration node to include a pictorial representation of the selected hardware resource, wherein the pictorial representation of the selected hardware resource is included in the hardware configuration node and represents at least a partial circuit diagram of the first hardware device;
receive user input specifying configuration for the selected hardware resource; and
connect the hardware configuration node with a dataflow node in the first diagram in response to user input.
