Problem Title:
F1.4/1.5: Modifying libraries when moving from Metamor (XVHDL) to Express


Problem Description:
Urgency: Standard

General Description:
When converting a VHDL design from Metamor to Express, the libraries listed
in each VHDL file will need to be updated. This is necessary when using code
generated by the F1.4 State Editor in F1.4 Express.

The locations of the Express libraries are listed in (Xilinx Solution 2968).
Examine these files to see the packages available within Express.


Solution 1:

If you are using the Metamor libraries listed here, modify your VHDL to match
the Express libraries listed below.

Metamor libraries:

library IEEE;
use IEEE.std_logic_1164.all;
library SYNOPSYS;
use SYNOPSYS.std_logic_arith.all;
use SYNOPSYS.std_logic_unsigned.all;
library METAMOR;
use METAMOR.attributes.all;


Express libraries:

library IEEE;
use IEEE.std_logic_1164.all;
use IEEE.std_logic_arith.all;
use IEEE.std_logic_unsigned.all;
library SYNOPSYS;
use SYNOPSYS.attributes.all;
