Known issues

User notifications

Most stuff we should notify the user are not implemented because vim-hdl started as an external tool. Vim-hdl running inside Vim's Python shell is under development to address this.

Built-in libraries

Built-in libraries are statically defined, which means that things will break on different environments. We can either use the compiler to get them somehow or create an option for the user to set manually. Using the compiler is the preferred approach.

Circular dependencies

So far this works, but few cases were tested. Maybe things won't work depending on the environment.

Plug-in configuration

Configuring is done via python/config.py by the same cause of the User Notifications limitation.

Recursive rebuilding reverse dependencies is still experimental

Cases where a file almost every other file on the project depends on can lead to (re)build time much larger than the user would expect from a syntax checker.

Most likely the best fix is to solve this in background after User Notifications limitation is fixed.
