description

This VHDL indent file will help indent a VHDL file in Vim with the operator '='. To indent the whole file, do 'gg=G'. See ":help =" Previous good work has been done by N. J. Heo & Janez Strangelj (see vimscript#766). However, Heo & Strangelj's script was lacking in terms of alignment for assignment statements that continued on for more than one line, among other things. This script covers a broad set of VHDL keywords, and performs proper alignment on port/generic mappings & on the RHS of assignment operators. To disable alignment of generic/port mappings:   :let g:vhdl_indent_genportmap = 0 To disable alignment of right-hand side assignment "<=" statements:   :let g:vhdl_indent_rhsassign = 0 The two options above are enabled by default. To change them, place either of the above in ".vimrc". In later versions of Vim 7.1 and above, access help documentation with:   :help ft-vhdl-indent Please send feedback and bug reports via e-mail. Much appreciated :)

install details

Copy "vhdl.vim" to either one of these indent directories:   $HOME/.vim/indent/   $VIMRUNTIME/indent/ Place this line in ".vimrc":   :filetype indent on

package	script version	date	Vim version	user	release notes
vhdl.vim	1.62	2017-10-18	7.0	Gerald Lai	Fix regression indenting type records Incorporate shiftwidth() patch. Thanks Takuya Fujiwara!
vhdl.vim	1.60	2016-05-29	7.0	Gerald Lai	Fix indentation of set of generic declarations. Patch provided by Jacko Dirks. Fix for port maps with bit-select in first port Current version does not indent the following code comp_inst : comp port map ( a_in(0) => a, -- or a_in(1 downto 0) => a, ... Patch provided by robin. Thanks to both Jacko, and robin!
vhdl.vim	1.58	2011-09-28	7.0	Gerald Lai	PORT-like indentation of PROCEDURE arguments Better indenting for BEGIN and ELSIF/ELSE/END IF, etc. Thanks to Tjaart Opperman!
vhdl.vim	1.56	2010-07-11	7.0	Gerald Lai	Minor fix to correctly indent type record / units. Better indenting for END; Thanks to Angel Ezquerra.
vhdl.vim	1.54	2007-08-17	7.0	Gerald Lai	Minor bug fix over v1.53
vhdl.vim	1.53	2007-08-16	7.0	Gerald Lai	Full-line comments (lines that begin with "--") are aligned with the very previous line only if a whitespace follows after "--". In other words, the character that comes after "--" determines alignment. This allows commented code to be distinguished from real comments. Thanks to Christian Brehm again for the idea!
vhdl.vim	1.52	2007-08-07	7.0	Gerald Lai	Critical bug FIXED: Alignment of code failed on indents with tabs. Realized that stridx() and matchend() read a tab as 1 space, instead of the correct &tabstop; number of spaces. Thanks to Christian Brehm! Renamed options to g:vhdl_indent_genportmap & g:vhdl_indent_rhsassign, to be consistent with naming convention.
vhdl.vim	1.50	2007-01-29	7.0	Gerald Lai	Now, alignment of generic/port mappings and RHS assignment "<=" statements can be disabled in ".vimrc". Minor improvements to keywords "end" + "component".
vhdl.vim	1.40	2006-06-13	7.0	Gerald Lai	Improved indenting for keyword "end".
vhdl.vim	1.36	2006-04-12	7.0	Gerald Lai	No change to main code. Just commented out code for "[[", "]]", etc. motion & matchit configuration, because they rightfully belong to the VHDL ftplugin. Also removed auto-indenting when typing "--" comment - it was more annoying than helpful.
vhdl.vim	1.34	2006-02-11	6.0	Gerald Lai	Small change: Improved '[[', ']]', '[]', '][' motions. Motions now accept a count (e.g. indent 3 blocks '=3]['). Motions also ignore comments now, and work for visual-type modes.
vhdl.vim	1.3	2006-01-31	6.0	Gerald Lai	Made more robust for various code layout. Fixed "else" keyword in conditional statement bug. Many other tweaks applied.
vhdl.vim	1.2	2006-01-26	6.0	Gerald Lai	Minor fixes: Keyword "report" handling added. Better handling of keyword "for". Resolved "<=" confusion between signal assignment & less-than operator. Made some matches more robust.
vhdl.vim	1.1	2006-01-25	6.0	Gerald Lai	Many major fixes: Generic/Port/Map statements alignment Generic Map no semicolon oddity accounted for Case-When alignment when one-line When statements are present Comments are smart-aligned now (be sure to do indenting at least twice) Accommodated more coding styles (VHDL people are a diverse bunch ;)) and many more.
