--preserve-case causes failure to build with components #1195
Description
From dec_viterbi in cocotb's regression (test_vhdl_access runs it).
Component declaration:
-- pkg_components.vhd
-- ...
component acs is
generic(
initialize_value : in signed(BW_MAX_PROBABILITY - 1 downto 0)
);
-- ...Entity declaration:
-- acs.vhd
-- ...
entity acs is
generic(
-- Reset value
INITIALIZE_VALUE : in signed(BW_MAX_PROBABILITY - 1 downto 0)
);
-- ...Component instantiation:
-- dec_viterbi.vhd
-- ...
inst_acs : acs
generic map(
initialize_value => INITIALIZE_TRELLIS(i)
)
-- ...Error message:
** Error: (init): generic INITIALIZE_VALUE in entity DEC_VITERBI.acs without a default value has no corresponding generic in component acs

Changing the component declaration's casing to match the entity fixes the error. But AFAIK this shouldn't be an issue. The --preserve-case is only for VHPI simulation object names.
