GCC Help Mailing List: I am currently looking to use GCC as a tool to produce an intermediate form that is able to be transformed into an abstract state machine description of a program. The goal is to then take this abstract state machine description and refine it to in order to produce an FSM capable of being coded in a hardware design language (HDL). We are currently looking at the RTL and GIMPLE trees, however RTL is far too low-level and GIMPLE seems like it may be too simple. I am trying to dump the SSA format, but for some reason the GCC tool doesn't produce any output when I use the "-fdump-tree-ssa" command line option. Any ideas on what form would work well for this? Has anyone seen work like this done before? Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, -Jason Agron, University of Kansas http://wiki.ittc.ku.edu/hybridthread
