A helper function to save generated System Verilog string as a file

[quekyj]

Motivation

I'm wondering if we can have a helper function to save system Verilog module generateSynth() to a file. Its a pain to keep copy pasting the code below to keep track of system verilog code generated.

import 'dart:io';

final res = mod.generateSynth();
final out = File('output.txt').openWrite();
out. Write(res);

File('temp.sv').writeAsStringSync(myString);

I am thinking maybe someone who also beneficial to have the system verilog .sv file as well.

Desired solution

There are two ways I can think of.

First is update:

• generateSynth() function to receive arguments like generateSynth(toFile=true, path='./mypath/simMod.sv)'

• Note that this might cause breaking changes as openWrite().close() will return Future<void>.

Second:

• Create a static helper function to just dump in string to any file format.
