Why is this an issue?

Sharing some naming conventions is a key point to make it possible for a team to efficiently collaborate. This rule allows to check that all architecture names match a provided regular expression.

How to fix it

Code examples

Noncompliant code example

With default regular expression: ^[a-z]|[a-z]+[a-z0-9_]*[a-z0-9]+$

architecture MyArchitecture of my_entity is -- Noncompliant: Uppercase characters not allowed
  ...
end;

With custom regular expression: ^[a-z]+[a-z0-9_]*_{ENTITY_NAME}$

architecture arch of my_entity is -- Noncompliant: Entity name not repeated at the end
  ...
end;

Compliant solution

With default regular expression: ^[a-z]|[a-z]+[a-z0-9_]*[a-z0-9]+$

architecture my_architecture of my_entity is
  ...
end;

With custom regular expression: ^[a-z]+[a-z0-9_]*_{ENTITY_NAME}$

architecture arch_my_entity of my_entity is
  ...
end;
