bug#54730: 28.1; vhdl-update-sensitivity-list not working in Windows

[Cyril Arnould]

vhdl-update-sensitivity-list is not working anymore in Windows. I

have a very simple process:

 

  -- Flip Flops

  p_memzing : process (Clk_CI, Rst_RBI)

  begin

    if Rst_RBI = '0' then               -- asynchronous reset (active low)

      BlockCount_DP <= (others => '0');

      Length_DP     <= (others => '0');

    elsif Clk_CI'event and Clk_CI = '1' then  -- rising clock edge

      BlockCount_DP <= BlockCount_DN;

      Length_DP     <= Length_DN;

    end if;

  end process p_memzing;

 

If I execute vhdl-update-sensitivity-list-process, I get the error

message "Symbol’s value as variable is void: proc-end". If I execute

vhdl-update-sensitivity-list-buffer instead, I get no error message but

the sensitivity list is not updated properly, e.g. if I delete Clk_CI

from the sensitivity list, it is not added back.

 

This problem occurs in both natively-compiled VHDL mode as well as

byte-compiled VHDL mode. I have also deleted my .emacs configuration

file to reproduce the bug in a more vanilla environment. This was

working fine under Emacs 27.2.
