Systems and methods for testing a component by using encapsulation are described. The systems and methods facilitate communication between two components that use two different languages in a test environment. Such communication is allowed by encapsulating an identifier of a function to create a call message, encapsulating an identifier of an event to create an event message, or encapsulating an identifier of the function to create a return message.

Systems and methods for testing a component by using encapsulation

Methods and apparatus are provided for allowing efficient clock domain crossing management in programmable chip systems. Components associated with different clock domains can be analyzed. Clock domain crossing components are automatically selected from a library of clock domain crossing components to allow connection between disparate clock domains. Clock domain crossing components can be shared, chained, and intelligently selected for increased efficiency.
