class pyGHDL.dom.Misc.Alias(node, aliasName, name, subtype=None, documentation=None)[source]

Inheritance

Inheritance diagram of Alias

Parameters:
__init__(node, aliasName, name, subtype=None, documentation=None)[source]

Initializes an alias declaration.

Parameters:
  • identifier – The identifier of a model entity.

  • name (Symbol) – Reference to the name being aliased.

  • subtype (Symbol) – Reference to the alias’ subtype, or None if none was given.

  • documentation (str) – The documentation comment associated with this declaration.

  • parent – The parent model entity of this entity.

  • node (Iir)

  • aliasName (str)

Return type:

None

property Documentation: str | None

Read-only property to access the model entity’s documentation (_documentation).

Returns:

Associated documentation of a model entity.

GetAncestor(type)

Return the closest ancestor of the given type found by walking the parent chain upwards.

Iterates the parent chain - starting at this model entity - upwards (toward the root of the model) until an ancestor of the requested type is found.

Parameters:

type (Type) – Class (type) of the ancestor to find.

Return type:

ModelEntity

Returns:

The closest ancestor of the requested type.

Raises:

VHDLModelException – If the root of the model is reached without finding an ancestor of the requested type.

classmethod GetMethodsWithAttributes(predicate: TAttr | Iterable[TAttr] | None = None) Dict[Callable, Tuple[Attribute, ...]]
Parameters:

predicate (TypeVar(TAttr) | Iterable[TypeVar(TAttr)] | None) – An attribute class, an iterable of attribute classes, or None to accept every attribute.

Return type:

Dict[Callable, Tuple[Attribute, ...]]

Returns:

Dictionary of methods and the matching attributes attached to them.

Raises:
  • ValueError – If an element of parameter ‘predicate’ is not a sub-class of Attribute.

  • ValueError – If parameter ‘predicate’ is neither an attribute class nor an iterable of those.

property Identifier: str

Read-only property to access the model entity’s identifier (_identifier).

Returns:

Name of a model entity.

property Name: Symbol

Read-only property to access the name (_name).

Returns:

The name.

property NormalizedIdentifier: str

Read-only property to access the model entity’s normalized identifier (_normalizedIdentifier).

Returns:

Normalized name of a model entity.

property Parent: ModelEntity

Property to access the model entity’s parent element reference in a logical hierarchy (_parent).

Returns:

Reference to the parent entity.

property Position: <pyTooling.Decorators.readonly object at 0x7c526738b7d0>

Cached read-only property to access an IIR’s position in source code (_position).

If _position is None, resolve the position object from _iirNode

Returns:

The IIR’s position in the source file.

property Subtype: SubtypeSymbol | None

Read-only property to access the subtype (_subtype).

Returns:

The subtype, or None if not set.

__getstate__() Dict[str, Any]

Helper for pickle.

Return type:

Dict[str, Any]

__str__()[source]

Formats the alias declaration.

Format: alias myAlias : bit is target, or without the subtype when none was given

Return type:

str

Returns:

Formatted alias declaration.

_documentation: str | None

The associated documentation of a model entity.

_identifier: str

The identifier of a model entity.

_name: Symbol

Reference to the name being aliased.

_normalizedIdentifier: str

The normalized (lower case) identifier of a model entity.

_parent: ModelEntity

Reference to a parent entity in the logical model hierarchy.

_subtype: SubtypeSymbol | None

Reference to the alias’ subtype, or None if none was given.
