class pyVHDLModel.DesignUnit.Context(identifier, references=None, documentation=None)[source]

Represents a context declaration.

A context contains a generic list of all its items (library clauses, use clauses and context references) in _references.

Furthermore, when a context gets initialized, the item kinds get separated into individual lists:

LibraryClause → _libraryReferences
UseClause → _packageReferences
ContextReference → _contextReferences

When pyVHDLModel.Design.LinkContexts() got called, these lists were processed and the fields:

_referencedLibraries (Dict[libName, Library])
_referencedPackages (Dict[libName, [pkgName, Package]])
_referencedContexts (Dict[libName, [ctxName, Context]])

are populated.

Example

context ctx is
  -- ...
end context;
