[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Read variables during a simulation and not only at the end



Thanks for answers... but my idea is read variables during simulation 
for use them in other softwares, for example softwares for control 
automation.
I know that exist some middleware that link E+ with software like 
Matlab or Simulink and i would realize custom controls for building 
simulated.
For example in this period i'm looking for BCVTB, a middleware in 
PtolemyII language that create comunication between Simulink and E+.
