Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

Check VHDL code for common codestyle problems.

Rules include:

  • Signals, variables, ports, types, subtypes, etc. must be lowercase.

  • Constants and generics must be uppercase.

  • Entities, architectures and packages must be “mixedcase” (may be 100% uppercase, but not 100% lowercase).

  • Ports must be suffixed using _i, _o or _io denoting its kind.

  • Labels must be placed in a separated line. Exception: component instantiation.

  • End statements must be documented indicating what are finishing.

  • Buffer ports are forbidden.

  • VHDL constructions of the “entity xxxx is” and similars must be in one line. You can’t put “entity xxxxx” in one line and “is” in another.

  • No more than one VHDL construction is allowed in one line of code.
