real to time

[Attila Csosz]

Hi,

Is there a simple conversion routine in vhdl to convert real type time
data to time type data? For example: "0.001" -> "1 ms"

Thanks
Attila

Just multiply with the physical unit (1 sec):

variable f: real:=0.001;
variable t: time;
....

t:=f*1 sec;

(I only tried this with integers until now, but accoring to the LRM,
this should work)

Just multiply by the appropriate time unit (in your example, 1 second).
