Cannot extend from RealOutput

[Martin Sjölund]

connector ElectricCurrentOut
extends Modelica.Blocks.Interfaces.RealOutput( final quantity= "ElectricCurrent", final unit="A", displayUnit="A");
annotation(uses(Modelica(version="4.0.0")));
end ElectricCurrentOut;

Error: Internal error Invalid connector type on component unit

[Francesco Casella]

MWE:

connector ElectricCurrentOut
extends Modelica.Blocks.Interfaces.RealOutput(unit="A");
annotation(uses(Modelica(version="4.0.0")));
end ElectricCurrentOut;

gives

[1] 16:22:12 Translation Error
[ElectricCurrentOut: 2:47-2:55]:
Internal error Invalid connector type on component unit

upon checking, while

[1] 16:13:04 Translation Error
Internal error Invalid connector type on component unit

without indication of the source code lines. No idea why.

@perost, is this a trivial fix?

Replying to casella:

@perost, is this a trivial fix?

No, it's slightly complicated since the NF doesn't really handle connectors like this at the moment.

[Martin Sjölund]

It could be possible to handle some of these (the ones that don't contain anything except extends/import maybe).

[Francesco Casella]

Well, if there is a workaround for the TransiEnt library I guess this is not top priority currently.
