VHDL - 10% duty cycle

Hello, I'm new to VHDL. I need to generate 500Hz from 50MHz clock 
frequency. I already got it. My problem here is how should the code to 
be adjusted if I want to change the duty cycle to 10%, 30%, and 50%?

Thank you.

You should reformat your code. You cannot read which "else" belongs to 
which "if".
I don't kniwnif its even possible to add 1 to a std_logic_vector.
What you need, are 2 values. One for counting up and one for down. 
Typically you set a flag if you are counting up or not.

Indeed 2 values are needed.
But only 1 for a counter, and the second for a compare value to toggle 
the output. Then its stupidly easy:
1
library IEEE;

2
use IEEE.STD_LOGIC_1164.ALL;

3
use IEEE.numeric_std.ALL;

4
5
entity PWM500Hz is

6
    port( clock   : in STD_LOGIC; -- 50 Mhz

7
          pwmout  : out STD_LOGIC);

8
end PWM500Hz ;

9
10
architecture Behavioral of PWM500Hz is

11
  signal cnt: integer range 0 to (50000000/500)-1 := 0;

12
  constant cmp: integer := (50000000/5000); -- PWM = 10%

13
begin

14
15
  process(clock) begin

16
    if rising_edge(clock) then

17
      if cnt<(50000000/500)-1 then cnt<=cnt+1;

18
      else cnt<=0;

19
      end if;

20
    end if;

21
  end process;

22
  

23
  pwmout <= '1' when cnt<cmp else '0';

24
end Behavioral;
