VHDL Objects

-- Notes Page --


VHDL 1993 defines four types of objects, files, constants, variables, and signals.

The purposes of the file object are listed above. Files may be opened in read or write mode. Once a file is opened, its contents may only be accessed sequentially. A detailed description of the use of file objects is beyond this module and will be discussed further in the 'System Level VHDL module'.
