Buildings.Obsolete.Utilities.IO.Python27.Functions.BaseClasses.PythonObject
class used to create the external object: PythonObject
Information
Class derived from ExternalObject having two local external functions
named destructor and constructor.
These functions create and release an external object that allows the storage of a Python object.
Extends from ExternalObject.
Modelica definition

Buildings.Obsolete.Utilities.IO.Python27.Functions.BaseClasses.exchange
Function that communicates with Python
Information
This function exchanges data with Python. See Buildings.Obsolete.Utilities.IO.Python27.UsersGuide for instructions, and Buildings.Obsolete.Utilities.IO.Python27.Functions.Examples for examples.
