Declaration hides port port_name / Port port_name hidden by

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Hi,

When copiling a .vhd that I wrote these days, I get no errors with
GHDL, but warnings such as `Declaration hides port port_name' and
`Port port_name hidden by declaration in architecture.'

Any idea of what it could be caused by?

Thanks.

You have probably declared a signal in the architecture with the same
name as a port on the entity. Thus you have no way to access the port
from within the architecture.
Exactly. Thanks!
