Re: [VHDL] VHDL-2008 'context' clause of the packages -> not recognized by Quartus Prime?

Altera_Forum · ‎12-09-2017

Hi All,

Does Quartus Prime support VHDL-2008 'context' clause of the packages?

I'm receiving the following error:

Error (10500): VHDL syntax error at t_all.vhd(6) near text "context";  expecting "entity", or "architecture", or "use", or "library", or "package", or "configuration"

for the following file contents:

context t_all is
  library pkgs;
  use     pkgs.t_bit.all;  
  use     pkgs.t_lpfsm.all;      
  use     pkgs.t_des.all;  
  use     pkgs.t_fifo.all;  
  use     pkgs.t_ports.all;  
  use     pkgs.t_tbl.all;  
end context t_all;

It seems Questa Prime does not recognize the context keyword...

So, how to fix/workaround?

Thank you!

Hi

Can try by changing the compiler setting and check?

Default is 1993 can you select 2008.

I'm very very surprised Intel support did not know the answer for their own tools.
