Unable to use macros within python environment

[aivanova5]

Problem description

When using the format

main.py :

import gridlabd
gridlabd.command("test.glm")
gridlabd.start("wait")

and test.glm contains a macro such as #weather get

this error occurs:

aivanovalocal@PC99458 sce_poles % gridlabd main_cardinal_network.py
/bin/bash: gridlabd/gridlabd-weather: No such file or directory
ERROR    [INIT] : GldMain::subcommand(format='%s/gridlabd-%s',...): command 'gridlabd/gridlabd-weather get CA-Chino_Airport.tmy3

Does it work if you use the full command macro, e.g., #gridlabd weather get...?

[dchassin]

Problem 1: the macro expansion of #weather is not doing anything, while #gridlabd weather works ok.

Problem 2: the command line syntax gridlabd file.py does not do anything, while gridlabd python file.py works ok.
