ALTERA error

[Vince Perron]

Hi,

i'm trying to compile this vhdl file using MAX+PLUSII but I keep
having these errors:

Node '|fortuit_module_lpm_ff:FORTUIT1|227.IN1' missing source
Node '|fortuit_module_lpm_ff:FORTUIT2|227.IN1' missing source

it's comming from a component I made and compiled perfectly
(fortuit_module_lpm_ff)

here's the beginning of my code:

I carefully assigned an entry to every input/output of both components
but it doesn't work.

Anyone has an idea on what could be the problem?
I can show you the rest of the file or the component's code if you
need...

thanks

In my experience, most synthesizers do not support positional
association for instantiations. Try using named association
(portname->signalname in your portmap. It is also MUCH easier to read
when you're debugging.

I already tried and it doesn't make any difference. Positional
association is supported because I used it for another component and
it worked perfectly.

Thx anyway Tim,
