UPDATE 2010-06-28

Dear Sigasi HDT user,

the heat wave through Belgium brings you another hot Sigasi HDT release. We present a new set of productivity enhancements and bug fixes.

Let us know what you think about this new release in the comments or on our forum.

The Sigasi Team.

New and noteworthy

  • For the former Emacs users we implemented stuttering. This allows to very rapidly type assignment symbols (=>,<=,:=) by 'double tapping' easy to reach keys on the keyboard (.,,,;).
  • We implemented a Fix Case action to clean up the use of upper and lower case usage in keywords and identifiers.
  • We added a "Set as Top Level" action to the outline and hiearchy view.
  • We implemented an intelligent quickfix to import Xilinx libraries as discussed on our forum.
  • In this release we also renamed the Color preference page to Editor, to better reflect it contents.

Bug Fixes

  • ticket:284: Detect clock edge when clock is element of array
  • ticket:722: Renaming an object that has an alias fails
  • ticket:780: No syntax error for missing "component" at the end of a component declaration
  • ticket:821: Hierarchy view should show generate statements, even when filtering
  • ticket:823: Align action does not deal with line ends correctly
