Constant state variable depending on Actor parameters: incoherence ? about orcc HOT 2 OPEN

Discussion :

Mickael Raulet said :
yes!
I believe for 1 you can use int CONST_VAR := par; this will let you initialize the variable
for 2 it is normal.

Karol Desnos said :
Using CONST_VAR := par; instead of CONST_VAR = par; did not impact the value taken by CONST_VAR nor removed the error if "par" has no default value.
When CONST_VAR := par; is used, instead of a #define, CONST_VAR is now a non-const global variable that still takes the default value of "par" instead of the value given in the parameter list of the actor instance.
This following generated code implies that an actor parameter keeps its default value during the actor initialization and takes the instance-specific value afterward.

void Toto_initialize(unsigned int fifo_input_id) {

    /* Set initial value to global variable */
    CONST_VAR = 3;
    [...]
}

(I just want to confirm this behavior before implementing it in the embedded C backend)
