HDL Coder to / downto order

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hi,
I'm using HDL Coder to generade VHDL code for a simulink block.
In the entity, the port order is generated as follow:
  • for fixed-point variables, the output port is std_logic_vector(n downto 0)
  • for boolean vector (Simulink Port dimension: [1 n]), the output port is std_logic_vector(0 to n)
Is it possible to change the order (to / downto), that all output ports have the same direction, and are not mixed for one entity?
My goal is to have downto for all outputs.

This is a limitation due to an early decision made to emit vector of boolean to use 'TO' syntax and is not currently customizable.
A potential workaround is to concatenate boolean vector to a single signal of ufixN type using BitConcat block and seperating input scalar signal inside DUT back to vector of boolean using BitSlice blocks.

The control is now available starting R2023b release for boolean arrays.
Generate code for Boolean array with MSB-to-LSB convention
You can now generate code for an array of boolean data in most significant bit (MSB) to least significant bit (LSB) convention. For example, a subsystem with boolean input and output data, the generated VHDL code with the DOWNTO convention has this form:
ENTITY Subsystem IS
PORT ( In1 : IN std_logic_vector(4 DOWNTO 0); -- boolean [5]
Out1 : OUT std_logic_vector(4 DOWNTO 0) -- boolean [5] );
END Subsystem;
You can use this functionality for the VHDL®, Verilog®, and System Verilog target languages.
To revert to the old behavior you can use this option.

Is there an option in R2023b that allows the indexing order to be switched back to the previous behavior (0 to ...)? Generally, I'm happy about the change to the "downto" order, but I need to restore the previous behavior for compatibility with a proprietary add-on that relies on the "to" order.

You can temporarily revert to the old behavior using 'BooleanVectorDownTo', 'off' option.
