VHDL connection problem

[maxascent]

I have a memory that output a 64-bit slv. I have another module that has
record type with a data 64-bit slv input. I want to connect the tw
together. If I do this I get x. If I disconnect them the mem outputs what
expect. I can also connect a constant to the record and see that value. No
sure why I cant connect the two as I get no errors in modelsim.

TIA

Which tool is giving the problem?

Some synthesizers misinterpret your intentions unless you assign all of
signal in one concurrent assignment statement (that is, not in an explici
process).

Thanks for the help. I actually had something else driving the signal.

X means you have 2 or more active driver on a signal driving different
values. Replace the std_logic_vector by std_ulogic_vector to detect in
compile time your problem.
Modelsim can't throw error, as your code is legal vhdl according to
lrm (but most likely useless/not what you like to get) and modelsim
simulates it correct.
