== How to setup Build environment ==

This tutorial explains how to prepate the PC environment for CRKit building process e.g. simulation, synthesis and place/route. Note that this is the external building process unrelated to the MATLAB build environment. 

To build the CRKit framework, we would need the following tools :

 1. Modelsim
 2. Xilinx ISE Design Suite
 3. Cygwin 

First, we will setup the .bash_profile (this file should be located in "c:\Documents and Settings\YOUR_USER_ACCOUNT") 
The .bash_profile environment variables will be loaded into cygwin shell when started. Add following to the .bash_profile 

{{{
export SDR_HDL_HOME="d:/mystuff/crkit_svn/design/trunk"
}}}
