VHDL Helper

VHDL Helper is a Visual Studio Code extension that provides VHDL snippets and a command to convert a VHDL COMPONENT declaration from the clipboard into a DUT PORT MAP inserted at the cursor or replacing a selection.

• A header snippet that can prefill author and course from settings.

Usage

2. Open a VHDL file and place your cursor where you want the DUT PORT MAP inserted (or select text to replace).
3. Run the command or use the keybinding to insert the generated port map.
