#5006 new defect

SimCode fails on array equations inside if equation

Component: Backend Version: v1.13.0-dev-nightly

Description

The frontend doesn't scalarize array equations involving function calls, but it seems the backend can't handle this when the equations are inside an if equation. For example:

function f2
  input Real x[:];
  output Real y[:] = x;
end f2;

model test
  Real x[3];
equation
  if time > 1 then
    x = f2({time, time, time});
  else
    x = f2({time, time, time});
  end if;
end test;

This gives the error:

[SimCodeUtil.mo:2466:7-2466:46:writable] Error: Internt fel function createNonlinearResidualEquationsComplex failed for: {0.0, 0.0, 0.0} = x - f2({time, time, time})

[SimCodeUtil.mo:636:5-636:146:writable] Error: Internt fel function createSimCode failed [Transformation from optimised DAE to simulation code structure failed]

I haven't seen any actual models that use this pattern. I found it because the new frontend decided what to scalarize before doing simplifications, so it wouldn't scalarize matrix constructors (which are translated into cat calls). I'll fix that, but fixing this issue would still be nice since it would give the frontend more flexibility when it comes to array equations.
