Task Tags within VHDL files

Hi,
I regularly used Task Tags when writing Java code within eclipse.

After reading some eclipse documentation it seems that
enabling Task Tags for VHDL-files has to be supported by VHDL-linting.
IMHO it seems that linting has to parse for Task Tags and propagate Task info to eclipse framework!?

Is this true?
Are you planning to support Task Tags for VHDL files?

TODO?

Hi Josef,

Just to make sure what you mean.
You want to write comments in your VHDL code, like this:

constant c : integer := 42; -- TODO check this value
 
signal s : std_logic; -- FIXME we should think of a better name for 's'

Then, you want the Tasks view to show the two tasks, so that you can easily find all TODOs and FIXMEs in your code.

(a similar question has been asked before)

If this is wat you mean, I will consider this a vote for extra priority. Can you please confirm this? Is there anybody else who thinks this is what we need to work on next?

TODO, FIXME etc.

Hi Philippe,
that's exactly what I meant.
Something similar to Java Task Tags would be great.

I'm not sure if this is a feature you should work on next. Probably there are more urgent issures and features.
For me I'd classify this feature as nice to have.

Cheers,
Josef

Task Tags

Hi Philippe,

i also like to have such a feature.

Definitely a nice to have...

but probably not the *most* important thing to focus on.

I just noticed today that they do not work...

This feature would be really

This feature would be really appreciated here.

by popular vote

OK, guys. It seams obvious you really want this. I thought it was not a big deal, but the number of posts in this thread prove me wrong.
I've put this feature on the list for early next year (Since this is December, you won't have to wait that long!)
