=== Release notes ===
This version contains a bug fix that caused a !NullPointerException if the {{{SystemCommand}}} actor is called
from a finite state machine.

=== Release notes ===
This version contains the following updates:
1. Added a compact schedules to the !EnergyPlus interface.
2. For the !EnergyPlus interface, changed variable names in xml configuration file {{{variables.cfg}}}. The following name changes have been made
    ||''old''||''new''||
    ||dayschedule|| (Replaced by schedule) ||
    || n/a ||schedule||
Note that the new object {{{schedule}}} is similar to the {{{Schedule:Compact}}} in !EnergyPlus and hence should not be used with a {{{Schedule:Week}}}.
You will have to manually update your files {{{variables.cfg}}} from earlier BCVTB versions.
2. For the !EnergyPlus interface, changed variable names in idf files. The following name changes have been made
    ||''old''||''new''||
    ||BCVTB || !ExternalInterface ||
    ||!PtolemyLink || !PtolemyServer ||
    ||Schedule:Day:Dynamic|| (replaced by ExternalInterface:Schedule)||
    || n/a ||ExternalInterface:Schedule||
    || n/a ||ExternalInterface:Actuator||
You will have to manually update your idf files from earlier BCVTB versions. See also [[Configuration/EnergyPlus|Configuration/EnergyPlus]] for how to configure !EnergyPlus.

== Release 0.4.0 (November 5, 2009) ==
=== Download ===
* [[http://gaia.lbl.gov/bcvtb-releases/0.4.0/bcvtb-install-0.4.0.jar|bcvtb-install-0.4.0.jar]]
* [[http://gaia.lbl.gov/bcvtb-releases/0.2.0/ep-3.1.zip|ep-3.1.zip]] This zip-file requires a password. It is the same file as the one that is distributed with the BCVTB version 0.2.0. To obtain the password, email the password of the official !EnergyPlus installation to ZhengweiLi.

=== Release notes ===
This version contains the following updates:
1. Added a new actor called {{{SystemCommand}}} that allows to call any system command from Ptolemy. See the [[Configuration/SystemCommand|example]] for further information.
1. Added option to start the BCVTB from a java jar file. This allows to start the BCVTB from a file explorer or from a command line with several options. See [[Files/BCVTBJar|Files/BCVTBJar]] for a description.
1. Added the example {{{examples/dymolaEPlus31-singleZone}}}, in which an air-based HVAC system that is modeled in Modelica is linked to a building model of !EnergyPlus.

== Release 0.3.1 (September 4, 2009) ==
=== Download ===
* [[http://gaia.lbl.gov/bcvtb-releases/0.3.1/bcvtb-install-0.3.1.jar|bcvtb-install-0.3.1.jar]]

=== Release notes ===
This version is a minor update that addresses the following issues:
1. For the Simulink interface, fixed a bug that prevented the BCVTB library to be displayed in Simulink's library browser.
1. Fixed compilation problems on Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
