release r0.5.62
2022-11-30
fixed issued #404
Problem
: idf.run() does not run if there is no idf filename
Solution
: fixed, so idf.run() works with no filename
fixed issue #405
Problem
: need a function to copy the entire idf
Solution
: IDF.copyidf() does this
fixed issue #403
Problem
:
- idf.run() obfuscates the filename while running the simulation
- makes it hard to know which file is running in distributed system like zeppy
Solution
: add the filename as a suffix to the obfuscated name

eppy - r0.5.60
release r0.5.60
2022-10-09
fixed issue #395
Problem
: dunder of setattr, getattr, setitem, getitem fail for an extensible field that is not in the IDD
Solution

dunder = double underscore such as [__setattr__]{.title-ref}
2022-10-07
fixed issue #393
Problem
: idf.newidfobject() will not work if you make it with more extensible fields than there are in the IDD
Solution
: Increase the extensible fields of the IDD (in memory of eppy) to match the fields in idf.newidfobject()
fixed issue #394
Problem
: In idf.newidfobject(self, key, aname=\"\", ... **kwargs), aname is depreceated
Solution
: remove aname form newidfobject
2022-10-06
Fixed issue #391
Problem
: If the IDF files has more extensible fields than the IDD file for an idfobject, the read will fail
Solution
: Increase the extensible fields of the IDD (in memory) to match the IDF file. It will not change the [Energy+.idd]{.title-ref} on the disk.

release r0.5.56
2021-02-15
fixed a typo in this file (HISTORY.rst)
release r0.5.55
2021-02-15
- fixed issue #324
Problem
The EnergyPlus objects can have legal names in the following format [Special glass <thickness is 3mm>]{.title-ref}
Energyplus itself has no problems with such names
This name turns up in the HTML output file.
: - In the HTML file the part name`<thickness is 3mm>` looks like an HTML tag. - The browser tries to make sense of it and fix it so that something can be displayed - This results in a mangled name in the HTML file as viewed in the browser
Solution
- Ideally this has to be fixed in Energyplus
- eppy has a stop gap fix
- eppy will ignore any tag within a cell of a table
release r0.5.54
2021-01-10
fixed issue #320
: - Problem: eppy.results.readhtml is very slow. Write similar function using generators - Solution: functions in eppy.fasthtml use lazy evaluation to get the tables quickly. This has been documented in user documentation in \"Reading outputs from E+\" and in \"New functions\"

- Fixes the TypeError
- 'TypeError: can only concatenate list (not "dict_keys") to list' is fixed
- issue # 113, # 239
2019-05-27
- fixed issue # 238
- Problem: if the IDF object has more fileds than that in the IDD file, eppy will truncate the object and will give no warning.
- Solution: eppy should throw an exception to warn the user that the IDF file is not readable without changing the IDD file.
- The exception message will the text that has to be added to the IDD file, so that it works correctly.
