assigning to 'modelica_string' (aka 'void *') from incompatible type 'double' data->simulationInfo->stringParameter[6] = 0.0;

[ali.shirazi@…]

Hi there,

After upgrading to the new version of omc and omlibraries, we found a compiling-related error while running a test case () from our open-modelica based repositort, SOLARTHERM, which can be found from ​https://github.com/SolarTherm/SolarTherm. The instructions to run this test case is given in ​https://github.com/SolarTherm/SolarTherm/wiki/Building-SolarTherm.

I am copying the error in the following:

Apparently, the issue is related to the Strings.substring command which is supposed to find a string from a file, but it sets a float value instead, and this raises an error. I should also mention that the older compiler versions were working just fine. As such we suspect that there is some bug in the compiling process in the omc v1.12.

I would greatly appreciate it if you could have a look at this issue and let us know what is exactly wrong.
