How to upgrade from version 1.4 IEngine |
Did it work now? Will be included to the official release? |
(JG)/SH |
OK, will just to be sure when migrating Sobek |
Upgrading from 1.4 using the upwards compatible wrapper |
Did it work now? Will be included to the official release? |

To be released after more experience |
time-dependent / time-independent mixing |
how to mix time-dependent and time-ignorant model components |

(Jesper): Assuming the most recent HowTo pages are those on http://public.deltares.nl/display/OMI20DOC/Home - correct?
(Peter): The official review pages http://public.deltares.nl/display/OPENMI/OpenMI+Association+Technical+Committee -> OpenMI 2.0 Review -> "Content of the review" are more uptodate, at least the spatial mapping page.
1.3. SDK
We will leave SDK like it is just now. New documentation will not be created.
There are memory problems with large element sets.
Not to long from Jesper will copy the 1.4. fix for this into the 2.0 SDK.
2. Various issues
2.1. Final agreement on the extensions
No feedback from OAEC and OADC. The Standard just has be released as soon as possible.
Proper definition of how to use them and what it means for OpenMI-compliancy has been written (see action above).
2.3. Mixing time-dependent and time-independent components
- Clarify what should happen when time-dependent and time-independent model components are mixed in a model chain. Is there enough "contextual" information available for processing?
This was discussed at the previous meeting, and was solved by wrapping the "ignorant" component in a component that knows about time / space.
To illustrate it, someone will create a how to, with a statistical component (min/max/avg etc.) as example. See status of the How To pages.
3. Remaining issues from meeting no 33/34
Issue |
Description |
status |
decision |
|---|---|---|---|
OpenMI XSD files |
The component and compliancy XSD files still are based on 1.4. Must be extended. |
Done by: Rob/Stef |
to be approved by Team |
Move interfaces to TimeSpace extension |
ISpatialDefinition, IElementSet, ITime, ITimeSet could be moved from the base to the TimeSpace extension |
Done by: Jesper(C#)/Rob(Java) |
Ok |
Update copyright notice |
Add year 2010 to the OpenMI copyright header in all source files |
Java updates done: Rob. |
Update SDK headers |
Distribution package |
Distribute base and timespace extension in a single package or as two? |
|
Keep as 1 package |
Merge IValueDefinition and IDictionaryItem |
IValueDefinition is an abstract entity, IDictionaryItem is just one of the available specializations, next to the quantity and the quality. Of course the IDictionary item incorporates part of the element set and time set definition, but this overlap is acceptable |
Closed |
keep IDictionaryItem as extension of IValueDefinition |
Rename IManageStateExtension |
IManageStateExtension should be renamed back to IManageState, to emphasize that it is an optional interface to the base standard |
SH(C#)/RK(Java: Done) |
- |
Adapted output factorty providers |
Check Specification document and code comments on the limitation of only asking the adaptee's component for adapted output factorties |
