Overview

This class defines the Port object. Ports are instantiated each time an Inst object is created and they correspond to the conecptual “ports” found on each Inst. They are connected to other ports via a connection list, these connections are built by the Parser component and in sum form the data structure which models the digital circuit described by the input EDF file.

#initialize(inst, type, name) ⇒ Port

This method is called each time a new Port object is instantiated. It takes a string argument for the Inst it belongs to (inst); the type of port it is, either input or output, (type); and its name (name), a concatenation of the name of the Inst to which it belongs and the port which it is representing.
