Record #6310 Problem Title: F1.5i: XABEL: Syntax Error 1039: Identifier name <signal>.c is already defined, Syntax Error 1030, Syntax Error 1029... Problem Description: Urgency: standard General description: When compiling or running Check Syntax in the HDL editor, error messages similar to the following are issued: Error L57/C21 : Syntax Error 1039: Identifier name 'sig1.C' is already defined. Error L57/C22 : Syntax Error 1030: Inconsistency in number of parameters. Error L58/C8 : Syntax Error 1029: PIN, NODE, DEVICE, ISTYPE, MACRO, STATE, PARTITION, GROUP, PLACE, PROPERTY, STATE_REGISTER or '=' expected Solution 1: These errors will occure if the EQUATIONS statement is missing or in the wrong location. Make sure that the EQUATIONS statement is present and hi-lighted in red. Note that if a DECLARATIONS statement is inserted after the original EQUATIONS statement then another EQUATIONS statement needs to be made before additional design equations can be added to the ABEL code.
