Testbench, need function convert from 2's complement

[Bob108]

I am writing a test bench and need to convert a 16-bit std_logic_vector from 2's complement form to it integer equivalent. Is there a function available?

you can use function conv_integer for example:
a : integer ;
b : std_logic_vector;

a <= conv_integer(b) ;

make sure that you use std_logic_signed package;
