Re: [Doxygen-users] VHDL Hierachy

[Stefan D. <st...@sd...>]

True, now that you mention it I remember that I also had two entities
that didn't show up in the graph at first, because I also used
direct-instantiation for the two missing entities. I usually never do
that, only for these two missing entities I was too lazy. (What I
usually do is I add the component declarations to a package, which I
include at the top of my file. That gives a better overview what is
used in the entity, but also keeps the architecture declarative part
clean.)

I just added the component declarations of my two missing entities to
the package that I include, and changed the instantiation and that
solved it for me. But if "a_module" is auto-generated I guess thats
not an option for you.

On the other hand: If a_module is auto-generated, you cannot add
doxygen comments to it. And since its generated, the inner structure
of a_module shouldn't be of concern anyway, in my opinion. Instead
maybe the settings/options of the generating script/program should be
documented.

But yeah, I know what you mean. I try to avoid generated code as much
as possible. But there is not always a way around it.

And it definitely is a bug in the doxygen parser. (Sadly Doxygen for
VHDL is not very good anyway (e.g. the UML class diagrams are almost
useless). Unfortunately there are no real alternative I guess.
