14 years ago --- Quote Start --- 2008 support is little more than the minor bits atm. I've been told full fixed package support is due in 12.1 so I'm hoping this covers the more complex parts like package genetics and generic types too. --- Quote End --- Any idea when 12.1 will be released? I'm new to quartus, so i don't know their release cycles yet.. --- Quote Start --- atm, DATA_WIDTH will have to be a constant in a package. to be honest, if this is a generic that is the same for many entities it should be in a package anyway. --- Quote End --- Yes you are basically right, but in a design where you need several fifo's with different data_width's then the package generics would make sense.
