ID for each module from the for generate

not quite sure I get the problem? it would be easy to pass in the loop value into a signal of the instatiation inside the generate, giving each instance access to it's ID number.

Why not post some code so we have a better idea of what you are trying to do.

Ok this is the top entity. I instantiate this module like this:

g_upd_req_conn : FOR i IN 0 TO MAX_H_TILES - 1 GENERATE

u_upd_req_conn : ENTITY work.upd_req_conn(beh)

PORT MAP(

rst_n => rst_n,

clk => clk,

ID => ???

);

END GENERATE g_upd_req_conn;

I need to give an ID to each module equal to the variable i, like a constant input. Any ideas?

if ID is integer:

g_upd_req_conn : FOR i IN 0 TO MAX_H_TILES - 1 GENERATE
        u_upd_req_conn : ENTITY work.upd_req_conn(beh)
            PORT MAP(
                rst_n                    => rst_n,
                clk                      => clk,
                ID                      => i
                );
    END GENERATE g_upd_req_conn;
