>500k VHDL file - Outline does not work

[Johann Swanepoel]

Hi

I am using veditorv 0.7.0,  eclipse 3.5.1

I have a testbench with all the verif tests in. (Reason for large file)

As soon as the vhdl file gets larger than +-500k, "Outline" stops working. (Hierarchy aswell)

I made a very simple test vhdl file.  Same thing, >500k "Outline" stop working.

Is there a setting to inrease this file size limit?

Thanks

There's no line number limitation. The performance should only be limited by your computer's CPU/Memory.
I have not tested the editor with large files but I 'll try in the near future. There is a slight chance we can improve the performance of the parser.

Hi,
I found a limit in VhdlParser#parse:

if(!ignorefile && filesize < 500000) {
ASTdesign_file designFile=design_file();
updateOutline(designFile);
SemanticWarnings warn = new SemanticWarnings(m_File);
warn.check(designFile);
} else {
ASTdesign_file designFile=new ASTdesign_file(JJTDESIGN_FILE);
updateOutline(designFile);
}
