- Under normal circumstances, we intend on providing a very stable API for clients to access EnergyPlus. - However, as somewhat expected (see 9.3 README), the first release of the API was always likely to expose - some cases that would require a change in the API. Indeed it did. The change is pretty widespread through the - API, but quite an easy change to make. In summary - a new argument is needed in most functions, including - Python Plugin method overrides and user-defined runtime API callback functions. The client merely needs to - accept this argument in functions and pass it back in to the API methods. More information can be found in the - input-output reference document. -
