#ghdl — Public Fediverse posts

@thezoq2 I just tried #surfer for the first time today. Compiled from scratch per the website. I had to file a bug, as it crashes after adding a handful of signals.

I was so hopeful. But for now going back to #gtkwave I'm sad though, because surfer is able to do very simple things like select all the signals at a level and add them to the viewer, whereas gtkwave seems to fight you at every step of the way.

Maybe I need to roll back to a tagged version and rebuild or something. #ghdl #vhdl

Very cool work from @DutraCGI , love trying to follow along 😅 🤓

#QAM16 Modulator made with #PipelineC simulation with #GHDL and cocotb! Raised Cosine filter with 0.35 rollof and 4 samples/symbol !

Our amazing IT department is finally getting around to a ticket I submitted in April regarding unfucking their security software and a #VHDL language server (https://github.com/VHDL-LS/rust_hdl). So I tinkered with the newest version of it this morning and it seems to still have the same errors as before. Seems to completely fail to pick up certain files and then also doesn't support genericized packages, based on how it's throwing a fit over #OSVVM. Might have to see if I can get #GHDL working on Windows without too much annoyance.

Don't have too much hope though. On the plus side I don't NEED it. It'd just be a nice to have capability and I'd like to experiment with Emacs #eglot with my language of choice.

Ok so it's still a bit buggy on windows, and ModelSim doesn't play nice.

But combined with #GHDL for open source #VHDL simulation and #gtkwave for wave viewing it's a surprisingly comfortable to set up tool chain, especially on Linux it's all just via package manager and pip~

Now to learn proper file structuring and documenting habits to raise the code quality bar a bit, probably add proper test benches~
Again #TerosHDL helps with built in docs generator <3
