Real-time connection error checking method and process

摘要

A method comprising monitoring a design environment to detect the addition of a circuitry component to a circuit being designed by a circuit designer. The method accesses a connection parameter definition file that specifies a set of connection parameters for that added circuitry component. The method compares the connection parameters defined in the connection parameter definition file with the actual connections of the added circuitry component. The method provides the circuit designer with feedback concerning the validity of the actual connections of the added circuitry component.
