Verilog in Digital Design Studio#

Open, edit, save, and navigate `.v` and `.vh` files in Digital Design Studio.

Overview#

Digital Design Studio recognizes .v and .vh files so you can open, edit, and save Verilog source alongside .sv and .svh files. A .v file can also be an explicit RTL project input used by project discovery and the Outline.

Start with a Verilog file#

  1. Open an existing project directory that contains a .v source file.

  2. Select the file from Explorer or Go to File.

  3. Edit and save it with Save File or Ctrl+S.

  4. Reopen the file and confirm that the saved change is present.

Header files using .vh are recognized and editable. The native project source-root path is explicitly defined for .sv and .v; a header is normally reached through the project file tree or an include relationship rather than treated as a standalone top.

Language Coverage#

The editor recognizes Verilog files, but parser, elaboration, simulation, synthesis, timing-model, PLI/VPI, and protected-source support vary by construct and release. Check diagnostics from the action you run; editor support for a file does not mean every downstream tool accepts every construct.

IEEE lists IEEE 1364-2005 as a superseded standard that was folded into the unified SystemVerilog standard line. Verilog source remains a supported project format here, so we call this Verilog support, not a separate “legacy mode.” See the official IEEE 1364-2005 status page for the standard’s publication status.
