[TRNSYS-users] inquire in TRNSYS17

[Hermann Schranzhofer]

Dear Arno,
 
yes this is a possibility and works fine. So we have to change the source from INQUIRE to getLUfileName if we compile with TRNSYS17 Libs. Compiling with TRNSYS 16.1 Libs (using inquire) and working with the compiled dll (copy it to the UserLib Folder of TRNSYS17) is also possible, but than you have to install both versions of TRNSYS.
 
Another confusing thing is that in the source of some standard types of TRNSYS 17 (in the folder TRNSYS17\SourceCode\Types) still the INQUIRE command is used.
 
Actually we can live with that even if it is a little bit strange.
 
Thanks for your advise and best regards,
Hermann Schranzhofer.

Dear Hermann,

 

have you tried to use  the TRNSYS function getLUfileName(fileID)?

 

Kind regards,

Arno

 

 

 

7.4.2.13. function getLUfileName (i) 

 

A character function that returns the name of the file corresponding to the logical unit i. If the file logical unit number has not been assigned, it returns an error message. 

Example Usage 

INTEGER LU 

CHARACTER (len=maxLabelLength) fileName 

... 

fileName = getLUfileName(LU)

Dear all,

 

we have some TRNSYS 16.1 Types and we want to use them with TRNSYS 17. Some of them use the INQUIRE command to get the filename of a data file. The syntax is:

INQUIRE(fileID, EXIST=flag_exist, OPENED=flag_open,NAME=file_name).

 

This works fine with TRNSYS 16.1 but not with TRNSYS 17. Debugging the code shows that the INQUIRE command returns an empty character array for file_name.

 

I also did a small example (see attachment).

 

Can anyone help me?

 

Thanks and best regards,

Hermann Schranzhofer.
