Silice terminates without error message, if a subroutine contains two output parameters. #225

Hello Sylvain,

If the following design is compiled, Silice (draft branch) terminates without error message:

algorithm main(output uint5 leds, inout uint8 pmod)
{
   uint8 main_data1 = uninitialized;
   uint1 main_data2 = uninitialized;

   subroutine s(output uint8 data1, output uint1 data2)
   {
      data1 = 0;
      data2 = 1;
   }

   while (1) {
      (main_data1, main_data2) <- s <- ();
   }
}

It seems, as if the two output parameters of the subroutine s are the reason for this.

Regards, Bernd.

Hi Bernd,

Sorry for the delay in answering, thanks for the report! This looks rather serious, will fix asap.

Regards, Sylvain

Hi Bernd, this is fixed in all branches.

Thank you for the report -- good catch -- it was a depressingly simple copy-paste bug!
