I think that's a safe assumption. I can imagine that they designed a
parser-generator that scans C for specific structures, generating VHDL
or something at a lower level and also obviously doing variable
replacements in the rest of the C code. I've often thought about this
myself, but I wouldn't really call it running C code.
Certain things that would be nice to know would be if it respects
sharing an fpga with a separate core, if certain pins would be off
limits, and other various constraints.
Thats definitely an interesting area of software though, in any case.
I wonder if there is a similar open source project?
