Error message examples

 Local values (e.g., parameters or locals declared using For, Var, MetaVar or Using) are not
 objects and thus have no attributes.  An attempt has been made to assign to the attribute
 of a non-object, which is not possible

Cause

You tried to set an attribute of a local variable or a parameter which is not allowed. The following code would generate this error:

Var Local_a := 5;

Description of Local_a := "Description of local variable, Local_a";

...

Attributes can only be assigned to Analytica objects, i.e. variables defined by adding a node to the model.

Remedies

One solution would be to create a node variable instead of the local variable, and then assign the attribute for the created object.
