Hi
Attached you will find a VHDL-file, which implements an FSM and uses the function "next_crc16_d8(..)" to calculate the CRC.
The file compiles fine for Questa, but fails in QuartusPrime 18.1 on line 141, because the signal "tx_data", which is an output, is used as an input to the function (Error (10600): VHDL error at tx_frame_rtl.vhd(141): can't read value of interface object "tx_data" of mode OUT)
Additionally, when activating line 89 for the signal "tx_parity" to calculate the parity using the unary operator XOR for a vector, this also fails!
Having the year 2020, it's still astonishing that Intel can't handle basic VHDL-2008 standards. It's a pity or are there any workarounds / solutions / updates?
By the way,
set_global_assignment -name VHDL_INPUT_VERSION VHDL_2008
is set.
Let me know, if something is missing to reproduce the problem!
Regards
Stefan

I've also encountered this lack of support for VHDL-2008. I often get my code simulating properly in Questa only to find that a VHDL code construct I used isn't supported by Quartus.
OSVVM and UVVM are getting more traction. Intel should really focus on supporting more the features of VHDL-2008.
Following this thread in case you get a solution...

I was able to duplicate this in the Quartus Std. Will get back to you all soon.

Seems like the code was synthesizable in Quartus Pro, can you check your email for the workaround?

Hi Stefan,
That note is for JC, as I need his company information which should not be public.
Anywhere it is handled.
Sorry for the confusion,
Best regards,
Kenny
