General Description: If the following errors are issued:
Number of ports in component <xyz> and associated entity does not match. Component <xyz> was not bounded to architecture <xyz>(<rtl>). Local configuration required.
Then the following might apply.
If the schematic design consists of instantiated VHDL symbols, and the VHDL macros contain Generic Ports then the associated symbols must have Generic attributes associated with them.
Solution
Here are the steps to add the attributes to the ECS Symbol.
1- Open the schematic.
2- Select Edit -> Attribute -> Symbol Attribute (CRTL+A). This will open the Symbol Attribute Editor.
3- Click on the desired symbol.
4- Select the List All Attributes check box. All of the attributes for the symbol are displayed in the Symbol Attribute Editor.
5- Select VHDLGeneric1. In the edit field enter: <portname> => <value> For example: N => 5
Then hit return. The value should be displayed in the list below. This value will be placed in the VHDL netlist on the component instantiation.
6- Close the Symbol Attribute Editor.
7- Select Edit -> Symbol. Click on the desired symbol. This will open the Symbol Editor with the selected signal.
8- In the Symbol Editor, select Edit -> Attribute -> Symbol Attribute. This opens the Symbol Attributes dialog.
9- Select VHDLGeneric1. In the edit field enter: <portname> : <type> For example: N : integer
Then hit return. The value should be displayed in the list below. This value will be placed in the VHDL netlist on the component declaration.
10- Close the Symbol Attributes dialog. Save the symbol and close the Symbol Editor.
