how to use "wait" or dealy in a process?

Hello group,

I need to simulate a dealy in a process. However I'm getting an error
as "A wait statement is illegal for a process with a sensitivity
list."

What should I do?

Regards.

Of course, I am having a sensitive list in my process since I'm using
FSM states. What I'm trying to do is creating a delay. Is it possible?

Thanks.

op <= ip after 10 ns;

This is for simulation purpose... It cant be synthesized.
Synthesizers ignore delay expressions('after'....)

JK,

Thanks indeed for your help.

A sensitive list is already considered a complete wait statement in itself, so
the VHDL language does not allow another wait statement. Remove your sensitivity
list, and add a WAIT ON <previous sensitivity list>; statement to the top of
your process.
