3925	Protected variables are incorrectly written to the result file	Francesco Casella	Per Östlund	"I have some models where I am trying to make the size of the result file more manageable by making protected the internal variables of a model which are not of interest. I can do it in two ways:
- put some variables in a model inside the protected section
- for composite model, declare the sub-models in the protected section, so that their entire contents become protected

In both cases, the corresponding variables are correctly marked as {{{isProtected = ""true"" hideResult = ""false""}}} in the {{{_init.xml}}} file. However, the variables from the first set are correctly not written to the result file, while the variables from the second set are written to the file.

Q1: Why is this happening?

Q2: Shouldn't the simulation runtime use the attributes from the XML file to decide whether or not a variable needs to be saved onto disk?

I can provide the test case privately to any interested developer."	defect	assigned	low	2.0.0	Run-time
