I try to output a standard logic vector as unsigned decimal either base 10 or hex. But it seems the only thing I can do with write is output a string. e.g.

write(out_line, "abcd");                    -- this works
writeline(vec_out_file, out_line);

write(out_line, integer'(da_out) );  -- This seems not to work. 
writeline(vec_out_file, file_line);

Do I want something this is not possible or is there another way to write a std_logic_vector to a textfile.

Thanks in advance for any help,

You could write your own conversion functions, or else use some out of the ieee.std_logic_textio package.
