Sorry Tom,
I was wrong. The change happened between version 4.0.0a4 and 4.0.0b13 (the
versions in between I didn't download)
Version 4.0.0a4 had in wxservices a section _dispatch_list which 'did the
trick' of the automatic calculations, see below.
So my question is: why is this feature removed?
Luc
Part of wxservices 4.0.0.a4
==================================================
# these are the quantities that this service knows how to calculate
_dispatch_list = [
'pressure', # pressure must be before altimeter
'barometer',
'altimeter',
'windchill',
'heatindex',
'dewpoint',
'inDewpoint',
'rainRate',
'maxSolarRad',
'cloudbase',
'humidex',
'appTemp',
# 'beaufort',
'ET',
'windrun',
]
==================================================
