Issue with NF and functions with arrays of records

[Francesco Casella]

Please consider the attached MWE. Try to simulate the model Elements with the NF. The following error is reported:

[1] 16:42:16 Translation Error
[C:/dev/OM64bit/OMCompiler/Compiler/NFFrontEnd/NFEvalFunction.mo: 389:9-390:53]:
Internal error NFEvalFunction.applyReplacementCref
could not find replacement for mats[i].x

I cannot reproduce the problem simulating attached .mos script. It runs fine under the current nightly, am i missing something?

I'm assuming he's using -d=evaluateAllParameters as usual. I will fix it.

Yes that seems to be the case. Thanks!

[Per Östlund]

Should be fixed in ​PR #729.

[Per Östlund]

Fixed in b6a7efde.

For the record, I was using OMEdit v1.16.0-dev-170-g3af6123f8, and indeed I had the "Evaluate all parameters" checkbox checked.

Unless I really want to re-simulate a model with different parameters, it really makes no sense not to do it: the compilation process is faster, and the simulation process is faster and more numerically robust. Debugging could be a bit harder, because literal constants do not reveal their origin, but unless the model fails I don't really care.

Thanks @perost!
