Severity level configuration

Sigasi HDT has reasonable defaults for the severity level of reported problems. However, the severity level of certain classes of problems is configurable for additional flexibility. The configuration interface is available in Window ‣ Preferences, Errors/Warnings.

In the same window, you can set the maximum number of markers per file.

Linting

Sigasi HDT provides info about potential problems in the design. The following problems are reported:

Unused declaration

Declaration could not be found

Missing signal in sensitivity list

Both clocked and combinatorial processes are understood.

Unnecessary signal in sensitivity list

Both clocked and combinatorial processes are understood.

Quickfixes

Remove declaration

An unused declaration is removed.

Generate signal declaration

Automatically declare an undeclared signal

Correct sensitivity list

The tool will remove or add signals to the sensitivity list, so that it complies with synthesizability guidelines.

Define undefined library

This quickfix lets you define an undefined VHDL library. See Library configuration using a quickfix.
