I know there have been some questions on this before, but I've not seen any related to this specific measure.

I'm attempting to run an OpenStudio measure "btap_equest_converter" to import eQuest geometry into an OS file, and I receive the following error code. Is this an issue with my Ruby version, or the measure itself?

DL is deprecated, please use Fiddle

The message 'DL is deprecated, please use Fiddle' is a result of requiring Win32API in Ruby 2.0, it is a benign warning and out of our control to fix it. The actual error is in the backtrace where it says require': cannot load such file. As mentioned in this post the eQuest converter measure is a work in progress and that is likely the reason for this error.
