Hi all,
In my package declared below and performing rational division 
operation,once i ran on GHDL VHDL simulator gave an error "no function 
declarations for operator "/""

 variable w,x : integer;
 variable num : real;
 begin
  w := numerator(a);
  x := denominator(a);
  num :=(a(numer))/(a(denom));

Thanks in advance
Regards

> i attached my source code.
Thats not the complete code. At least the libraries are missing...

And this seems to be wrong:
1
  type rational is array (natural range numer to denom) of integer; -- range -16384 to 16383;
Usually the range of an integer is -2^31 to 2^31-1

1
  constant numer : INTEGER := 0; -- numerator
2
  constant denom : INTEGER := 1; -- denominator
3
  type rational is array (natural range numer to denom) of integer;
Why do you not use a record?
That would be the ideal solution for your fractional number:
1
  type Rational is record
2
     numer : integer;
3
     denom : integer;
4
  end record Rational ;
5

  -- use it that way:
7
  signal a,b: work.ratpack_extras_rational_real.Rational;
8

9
  a.numer <= 123;
10
  a.denom <= 12;
11

12
  b <= a;
