Summary
The
UnitCompBaseclass inspects the input arguments ofExplicitComponent.add_outputto get the set of metadata that should be copied from its inputs to it's outputs. However, in OpenMDAO 3.40, this PR replaced most of the arguments ofExplicitComponent.add_outputwith**kwargs. This removes a bunch of entries from the copied metadata and results in several fields, includingunitsnot being copied to the outputs. I fixed this by simply inspecting the input arguments ofComponent.add_outputinstead.Full disclosure, I have absolutely no idea how pyCycle works, or what exactly this
UnitCompBasecomponent does (other than converting the units of some variables to imperial). There may well be a much better way to do this.Backwards incompatibilities
I tested this with OM 3.39 which is the last release before the change that necessitates this PR, and it is compatible.
