SCL Reference: process

The process is the fundamental code element inSCL. It represents a sequence of events to be performed.

Here is the basic syntax of a process.

​
process is   begin      // process statements go here   end process;

A testbench may have more than one process in it.

​
testbench for PIC32MX360F512L is   process is // 1st process      begin      end process;   process is // 2nd process      begin      end process;   end testbench;

Finally, a process may have a name

​
processName: process is   beginend process processName;

or, alternatively

​
processName: is process is   beginend process processName;

The process name is decorative only but must be unique. The process name may be used in future versions of SCL.
