Dymola 2014 FD01 Release Notes 11
3.2.5 Selected commands (built-in functions) available
from the package browser
In Dymola 2014 FD01 selected commands (built-in functions) can be made available from
the package browser or be reached by the context command
Insert Function Call…. This
enables convenient use in the Modelica Text editor by drag-and-drop.
To load the commands in the package browser, import the package DymolaCommands by
typing
import DymolaCommands in the command input line of the Commands window.
The selection and grouping of the commands are the same as in the Dymola User Manual
Volume 1 (chapter “Simulating a model”, section “Scripting”, subsection “Built-in functions
in Dymola”).
Note that since the commands now can be used by the context command
Insert Function
Call… the commands are available in a number of editors, e.g. Modelica Text editor as well
as the new Script editor (page 20), if displayed in the package browser.
3.2.6 Multiple conversion of libraries supported
Dymola 2014 FD01 supports multiple conversions of libraries. A typical case is that a user
does not upgrade to each new Dymola version, but “jumps” a certain version. When
upgrading to the present Dymola version in this case, certain libraries may demand to be
upgrading to the “jumped” version before upgrading to the present version. Dymola 2014
FD01 handles this by executing more than one upgrading script in the same operation.
An exception is if any intermediate library version requires manual conversion; which is
handled by converting models to a deprecated library. This deprecated library may be
missing in, or may be incompatible with, the newer Dymola version.
