[ModelSim] How to set support to VHDL-2011 ?

[Altera_Forum]

Hi All, 

 How can I set support to VHDL-2011 in ModelSim?  Actually I've put the VHDL93 = 2008 line in the modelsim.ini, but it seems it does not catch it. At least, then I try to use an output port in one of the processes, I'm receiving the following error message: "Cannot read output "signal_name"". As far as I know, VHDL-2011 supports using output ports in the processes, but VHDL93 doesn't.   Thank you!

how do you compile? using the vcom -2008?

I think you're thinking of VHDL 2008. There is no VHDL 2011.

sure, VHDL-2008

ah, sorry, can't help you there. I do use scripts.

Instructions on what that should be set to are literally right above the variable.  If you've created a project already, in the ModelSim project pane, with the source files listed, select all sources, right-click, choose "properties." Click the VHDL tab from the "Project Compiler Settings" dialog that pops up. Select the "Use 1076-2008" option under "Language Syntax."
