Some changes/additions were recently made to gtkwave's .fst file format, which can now also support 9 value logic, and special VHDL types like records, etc. (see gtkwave manual page 21).
Since the .fst file format shows better performance for larger waveform dumps, it would be very useful if these changes could be included in GHDL. For the implementation it might be interesting to have a look at https://github.com/nickg/nvc/blob/master/thirdparty/fstapi.c (I could not find any information on the fst format directly from the gtkwave website, besides the user manual) Lastly, since I am new to the mailing list, let me say a big "thank you!" to the Tristan and the other contributers. I am using ghdl extensively for my master thesis project. I am writing a GPS receiver in VHDL, including a MBlite Softcore CPU (a microblaze variant), and I am doing my simulations exclusively in GHDL. I especially like the performance of ghdl and that it is very pedantic about the LRM. My life would be several orders of magnitudes harder without GHDL. _______________________________________________ Ghdl-discuss mailing list Ghdl-discuss@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/ghdl-discuss
