Re: [energyinterop] EIMarketContext versus emix:MarektContext

[Girish Ghatikar <gghatikar@lbl.gov>]

Bill and others,
I agree with Ed. I think we debated this much at the EI TC meetings and decided that the EI TC must be able to extend the needs beyond what's being offered through other standards, while remaining compliant with those requirements. The specific case under discussion may be EiMarketContext vs. emix:MarketContext --- however, the need of the EI TC specific community may extend to other attributes. Otherwise, the boundaries are not clear.

Thanks,

Bill,

I've been seeing a lot of JIRA's related to the use of EiMarketContext versus the emix:MarketContext. I don't have time to go review all the changes you are making with regards to this, but let me point out that the EiMarketContext contains the emix:MarketContext and is an extension to include attributes not defined in the emix:MarektContext, therefore as a general rule we don't lose anything by using it.  The opposite can't be said if you substitute an existing reference to the EiMarketContext with a reference to the emix:MarektContext since the attributes in the EIMarektContext that are not in the emix:MarketContext sand will not be available. I fear this may be the case with respect to the Avail and Opt services. I'm not going to burn too many cycles on this now since in theory we can easily resolve it later by putting int the appropriate reference. The bigger issue is to use the notion of the market context correctly and put in the references whether it is the EIMarketContext or the emix:MarketContext.


thanks,
