[Help request] VHDL to Graphics

Hi!

I am a newbie on this language.
I am studing VHDL for the university because i've a exam next week ;)
Do you know a program that convert the VHDL source code into a visual
representation?

I'm asking you this, because i have 2 type of exercises:
-Coding from a given architecture
-Transform code into a graphical representation (and this is the problem
because i can't verify if I've done the exercise well).

Thank you in advance!

Hi,
besides the various RTL-viewers that come with the synthesis tools
there are also tools that do much more.
e.g. Mentor Graphics HDL Designer.
It can convert a HDL source into various types of graphical
representation:
- Block charts / schematics
- State diagrams
- Flow Charts

Have a nice synthesis

Quartus does have a block diagram editor, and it can convert the
graphics into simple VHDL and vice versa. Its BDF files can only be
compiled in Quartus though.

In almost all real engineering, the architectural diagrams come before
any coding starts.

But there is much working legacy code
that has no such diagrams,
and an RTL viewer is a leg up.
