Method Detail

newMicrocontroller

public Microcontroller newMicrocontroller(Program p)

The newMicrocontroller() method is used to instantiate a microcontroller instance for the particular program. It will construct an instance of the Simulator class that has all the properties of this hardware device and has been initialized with the specified program.

Parameters:

p - the program to load onto the microcontroller

Returns:

a Microcontroller instance that represents the specific hardware device with the program loaded onto it
