generic(
sel_bits: integer := 2;
data_width:...

Honored Contributoryou cannot declare an array like that. First you need to declare the type and then create a signal of that type. In this case you will need to declare the array type in a package.
type my_array_t is array(2**sel_bits-1 downto 0) of bit_vector(data_width-1 downto 0); --in the port input : my_array_y; The upshot of this is that you will need to decalre the generics as constants in the package also.
