A method for configuring a configurable hardware block includes implementing commands and/or command sequences of a program to be executed. The implementing step includes ascertaining a given type of subunit of a configurable hardware block, the given type of subunit being required for executing a respective command, selecting, if available, a subunit of the given type of subunit, configuring configurable connections provided around the subunit selected in the selecting step, if the subunit of the given type of subunit is found in the selecting step, and ascertaining configuration data with the step of implementing the commands and/or command sequences. The configurable hardware block is configured by using the configuration data.
