setTimeParameter error on StartTime (code: 10)

[rfsales]

Tryed different types of data on version "0.6.3" and "0.7.0":

# Test #1

project.setTimeParameter(10, "01:00"); //'Cannot convert "01:00" to long',
project.setTimeParameter(10, "1 pm"); //'Cannot convert "1 pm" to long'
project.setTimeParameter(10, 3600); //'Error 251: function call contains invalid parameter code'
project.setTimeParameter(10, 1); // 'Error 251: function call contains invalid parameter code'
project.setTimeParameter(10, 0); // 'Error 251: function call contains invalid parameter code'

Output:

{
  name: 'StartTime',
  cod: 10,
  desc: 'Simulation starting time of day.'
}
GET: 0
ERROR: Error: Error 251: function call contains invalid parameter code

Hi @rfsales ,

Thanks for bringing this to my attention, it turns out that StartTime was added after v2.2 and so isn't actually available from the toolkit.

OpenWaterAnalytics/EPANET#588

I've been looking at ways to allow the dev branch of epanet to run in epanet-js and would like to see that supported sooner than later.

Also, I was considering adding custom "unsafe" API functions to temporarily add support for specific features with the 2.2 engine.

I will leave this issue open until one of the two above options becomes ready
