Difference in ADE variable expression evaluation with and without a parametric sweep

Hello everyone,

I'm using an "if else" statement inside the (local design) variable value in ADE Assembler. The expression is used to assign a string value to a corresponding integer value.

The variable is defined as: 

CG_MODE = if(CG_MODE_s=="LCG" then LCG else if(CG_MODE_s=="HCG" then HCG else if(CG_MODE_s=="HDR" then HDR else 0)))

And CG_MODE_s can get string values such as "LCG", "HCG", "HDR".
The variables HCG, LCG and HDR are simple integers that are used inside the testbench.

This is basically a wrapper to use strings which are much easier to read and understand when sweeping these values.

The issue I have is if I'm running a single point simulation (i.e. - no parameter sweeps) the generated netlist contains the if statement inside the parameter (which I guess is not a legal netlist statement):

parameters {some parameters omitted} CG_MODE_s="LCG" HCG=1111 HDR=2222 \
LCG=3333  \ CG_MODE=if(CG_MODE_s=="LCG" then LCG else if(CG_MODE_s=="HCG" then HCG \
else if(CG_MODE_s=="HDR" then HDR else 0)))
