Why do I get a "Duplicate feature parameter" error when defining parameters inside IF...ELSE?

Why does the following code throw a "Duplicate feature parameter 'tubeLength'" error when the definition.tubeLength definition can only execute once?

        annotation { "Name" : "Type" } definition.tubeTypeTest is TubeTypes;

        if(definition.tubeTypeTest == TubeTypes.TOP) 

            annotation { "Name" : "Length" }

            isLength(definition.tubeLength, TOP_TUBE_LENGTH_BOUNDS);

        else if(definition.tubeTypeTest == Tube.HEAD)

            annotation { "Name" : "Length" }

            isLength(definition.tubeLength, HEAD_TUBE_LENGTH_BOUNDS);

More specifically, how do I use the same definition.myVar with different LengthBoundSpec definitions based on the earlier input?

This is a current limitation.  You can work around it by using different parameters in the precondition and then doing:

if (definition.tubeTypeTest == Tube.HEAD)
   definition.tubeLength = definition.headTubeLength;

in the body.

Thanks ilya_baran. This would be a very convenient capability, reducing FeatureScript code significantly.
