This semester, I have a Hardware course which requires the use of Verilog. I Googled for some free Verilog IDEs in which I can write Verilog programs and also compile and run them (I think the right word is 'simulate', but forgive me, I'm still used to C!), but I didn't get anything.
Hi, I need a copiler and simulator for Verilog on Windows machine. Any link for free download? Here are a couple free IDEs: SystemVerilog, Verilog, VHDL, and other HDLs. EDA Playground is a web browser-based IDE that offers an editor with syntax highlighting and a choice of simulators. Since it runs from a web browser, there is nothing to install. It is good for small prototypes, but not for large projects. SystemVerilog and Verilog. Download Icarus Verilog for free. Icarus Verilog is an open source Verilog compiler that supports the IEEE-1364 Verilog HDL including IEEE1364-2005 plus extensions. Welcome to the home page for Icarus Verilog. This is the source for your favorite free implementation of Verilog! What Is Icarus Verilog? Icarus Verilog is a Verilog simulation and synthesis tool.It operates as a compiler, compiling source code written in Verilog (IEEE-1364) into some target format. Here is very good VHDL compiler, simulator, synthesizer, schematic generator & editor, Logic simulator. This is all free version for VHDL. Additional, You can get other relate VHDL program.
Could you suggest some free software for Verilog program writing and simulation on Windows 7? My college provides some software called Xilinx in the college PCs, but I think that's not a free software. And they are not willing to provide it to us on our personal computers as well. So any advice will be greatly appreciated!
Also, I am a newbie to Verilog. If you know any great resources for beginners to master Verilog, at least to some extent, then please do share them here as well! Thanks!

There are professional tool provider such as Modelsim and Aldec who provide something like an IDE - with features like:
- source code editor, and you can set breakpoints in it.
- running compilation process
- running simulation
- viewing waveforms and other outputs
For Eclipse, I was aware of nothing - then RossRogers' comment pointed me to DVT Eclipse - neither of us have used it though :)
Personally, I use Emacs, a makefile and then run the simulator 'by hand'

Have a look at http://iverilog.icarus.com It's a free simulator and synthesis tool. Any text editor will do. Many people like vi, but you also use something like sublime text.
EDIT:If you want a complete IDE, there is Xilinx WebPack. It includes a simulator. It is free (as in free beer) but limited compared to the complete Xilinx software. Hp officejet g55 manual. But more than enough to get you started. If your college is using the same software, you should probably try this.
