[SOLVED] getting error while compiling vhdl code using ncvhdl

[er.akhilkumar]

Hello all,
While compiling the following code, I am getting error:
ncvhdl_p: *E,ALTYMM (dp_mem.vhd,54|35): subprogram call or operator argument type mismatch 87[4.3.3.2] 93[4.3.2.2].
Line for which the error is reported has been indicated using "Error is displayed for the next line".

Following is the vhdl code to be compiled:

library IEEE;
use IEEE.std_logic_1164.all;
use IEEE.numeric_std.all;
use IEEE.std_logic_textio.all;

library wb_tk;
use wb_tk.all;


entity dpmem is
generic (
default_out : std_logic := 'X'; -- Default output
default_content : std_logic := '0'; -- Simple initialization data
adr_width : integer := 3;
dat_width : integer := 8;
async_read : boolean := true
);
port (
-- Signals for the port A
r_clk_i : in std_logic; -- Read clock

w_dat_o : out std_logic_vector(dat_width -1 downto 0); -- Output data
w_ack_o : out std_logic -- Write ready output
);
end dpmem;

architecture behavioral of dpmem is

end generate;

end if;
end if;
end process WrProc;
end behavioral;


Please help.

More exactly, the error message is referring to this function call

to_integer(r_adr_i)

Reason: std_logic_vector can't be converted to integer.

Thanks for the help but can you tell me that how can we convert std_logic_vector to integer type as it is the requirement of the functionality.

 

[FvM]

std_logic_vector can represent either signed or signed numbers, thus you need to clarify the intended interpretation, e.g.

to_integer(unsigned(r_adr_i))

Yes, you are right, I got it. Thankyou very much. :-D
