VHDL has a similar syntax to Ada, but it is really a different
language; the semantics are oriented towards parallel processing of
many small gates, as opposed to serial processing of one main
processor.
You need a VHDL compiler that targets your FPGA. Spark does not; it
only targets mainstream computer chips.
Perhaps if you explained a little more about what you are doing, we
could help more.
