OMEdit generates bogus warnings about missing inner declarations when opening MultiBody models

[casella]

Steps to reproduce:

• Start OMEdit
• Open Modelica.Multibody.Examples.Elementary.SpringDamperSystem

The following warnings are reported

[1] 22:59:19 Translation Warning

The following notifications are also reported:

These messages are totally bogus, since the model indeed contains an inner World world declaration. As usual, this gives an impression of overall sloppiness.

Is it possible to get rid of them?

I let the -d=nfAPI show all the errors and warnings so we can catch issues. I will suppress them and one could re-show them using -d=nfAPINoise.

Replying to adrpo:

You mean issues with the NF API or issues with the model. In this case, the model should have no issues at all...

I will suppress them and one could re-show them using -d=nfAPINoise.

OK

[adrpo]

The errors you are seeing are from fetching all the class information, annotations, type of components, inherited classes. Yes, the model would not give these errors but these are from gathering all the information. You could have a look in the omeditcommunication log to see where they are actually coming from, from which API call.

[casella]

I still wonder why the compiler complains about the missing world component. Isn't it there?

[adrpo]

Because is not for that model those messages are reported, they are reported for:
Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.Parts and Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.Interfaces.

Replying to adrpo:

Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.Parts and Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.Interfaces.

OK, I see. Then, it's a good idea to just suppress them for good, as you suggested.

[adrpo]

Should be fixed by PR: ​https://github.com/OpenModelica/OpenModelica/pull/323
Probably some tests need updates, we'll see which.

[casella]

Very nice, no more bogus warnings :)

Unfortunately, I still get some bogus messages:

[1] 11:00:45 Translation Avvertimento
[Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.Parts: 215:5-215:51]: An inner declaration for outer component world could not be found and was automatically generated.

[2] 11:00:45 Translation Notification

component with the default gravity field will be used

drag Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.World into the top level of your model.

when opening Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.Examples.Loops.EngineV6_analytic.

[adrpo]

Fixed in a42b26/OpenModelica.

[casella]

More bogus messages: opening Modelica.Fluid.Examples.HeatingSystems gives:

[1] 23:23:07 Translation Error
[Modelica.Fluid.Machines: 400:5-400:82]: 
Medium is partial, name lookup is not allowed in partial classes.

[2] 23:23:07 Translation Error
[Modelica.Fluid.Machines: 400:5-400:82]: 
Medium is partial, name lookup is not allowed in partial classes.

[adrpo]

Fixed in 03cf86/OpenModelica.

[casella]

Double-checked, all's fine :)
