Hello Peter, I am pleased to see that there is still some interest around xHDL tools :)
Indeed, no Topcased member is currently maintaining these components: that is why they have been withdrawn from the distribution. But the source code is still here: if a group/committer is willing to support it (at least porting it to Topcased 5 / Indigo), it can be re-integrated in Topcased packages: your proposals are of course welcome. Best regards, --- Pierre De : [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] De la part de Topcased user list where issues are discussed Envoyé : 26 May 2011 22:10 À : [email protected] Objet : [Topcased-users] Topcased HDL support discontinued!? I have noticed that VHDL tools (editor and checker) don't get installed as they are not part of the Topcased toolkit 4.x.. I have noticed that Topcased v 3.4.1 is the last version that contains the VHDL tools (2.5). I tried to search the through the documentation but I did not find anything. Is there a reason for that? Or am doing something wrong during installation and I don't get the VHDL tools installed? If it is truly not part of the installation is there a plan to bring it back later in 5.x? In my case because I need it I worked around it by extracting the 2 VHDL plugins (.jar) from the 3.4.1 archive (org.topcased.experimental-3.4.1-201006141752.zip) and copying them into my eclipse\dropins folder. If anyone has a better way please let me know. I am asking because initially when I got interested in Topcased the HDL was one of the main tools I have used, and I think it is still a key tool for safety and mission critical complex systems development.
