with-select construct question

Hi all.

Is it possible/allowed to use more than one condition in the when
clause of a with-select construct? In other words, can I say something
like

with S select
Y <= I(0) when "00" and something else is true

It doesnt even have to be a with-select..it could be a when -else
construct too. What would be the syntax for that part? Im new to VHDL
and im using notepad so I cant test it out. Any help is appreciated.

Hi Nick,
Not really sure what u want to do, because you just present one line of
code, but maybe this is of some use for you:

Y<= I(to_integer(S)) when condition else Y_default;

Otherwise why don't you use processes, where you can nest nearly
everything like this:

process(S, other sigs)
begin
case S is
when "00" <= if condition then
Y<= I(0);
else
Y<= Y_default;
end if;
when others <= other stuff;
end case;
end process;

backhus

The with-select allows only one signal to select the condition. You
should use

Y <= I(0) when S="00" else
I(1) when T='0' else
I(2) when ((int_sig=3 and bool_sig=True) or (counter>100)) else
I(3);
