Variable: vhdl-actual-generic-name

vhdl-actual-generic-name is a customizable variable defined in vhdl-mode.el.gz.

Value

(".*" . "\\&")

Documentation

Specifies how actual generic names are obtained from formal generic names.

In a component instantiation, an actual generic name can be obtained by modifying the formal generic name (e.g. attaching or stripping off a substring).

FROM REGEXP is a regular expression matching the original name:
  ".*" matches the entire string
  "\\(...\\)" matches a substring
TO STRING specifies the string to be inserted as new name:
  "\\&" means substitute entire matched text
  "\\N" means substitute what matched the Nth "\\(...\\)"
Examples:
  ".*" "\\&" inserts original string
  ".*" "\\&_i" attaches "_i" to original string
  "\\(.*\\)_[io]$" "\\1" strips off "_i" or "_o" from original string
  ".*" "foo" inserts constant string "foo"
  ".*" "" inserts empty string

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 24.4.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 24.4.
