mti_NextVar()

Gets the next VHDL variable in a process.

Syntax

variable_id = mti_NextVar() 

Returns

Name	Type	Description
variable_id	mtiVariableIdT	A handle to the next VHDL variable in the current process

Arguments

None

Description

mti_NextVar() returns a handle to the next variable in the process set by the latest call to mti_FirstVar(). mti_NextVar() returns NULL if there are no more variables.
