Oscript Modules from 9.1 SP4 to 9.7 ?

adarsh_lobo_(adarsh.lobo@shell.com_(Delete)_112626

Hi All,We have few Custom Oscript Modules that have been developed by a vendor. At present these modules are working fine on Livelink 9.1 SP4. As a part of upgradation from LL 9.1 SP4 to LL 9.7.0.259 we need to install these custom modules on LL 9.7.Since these modules have been designed for LL 9.1 SP4 will they work on Livelink 9.7 ? What might be the challenges that we would have to face? Since opentext have made a lot of changes from 9.1 to 9.7 what will be it's impact on these modules. Appreciate pointers if any.Thanks,Adarsh Lobo

Hello Adarsh,There will be a few minor configuration things to do with each module....updating Kernel Dependency, and you should probably increment your module version.Otherwise, it depends on what type of customizations were done. I have upgraded several client applications and have experienced almost no issues with workflow event scripts, basic request handlers and node objects and commands. However, if your modules include any XML objects, that will likely require significant work on the upgrade. If there were any interface changes, you will likely have to re-work that - you might be able to take advantage of the appearances module, which is now part of core livelink....Can you give us some more detail on the type of customizations? You will likely get some more pertinent responses.Best,Donna

Donna,The module that I am working on is for the functionality of XML export. This module has inherited functions from XMLEXPORT object of WEBNODE and LLIAPI of LL 9.1. When the custom module is installed on LL 9.7 I find that there is no XMLEXPORT object in LLIAPI. This may be due to the changes in the core module by Opentext. Hence, lot of fucntions those are present in 9.1 are not found on 9.7.Is there any way to address this issue ???Appreciate your kind help.Thanks,Adarsh.

Message from Hans Stoop via eLinkHi Adarsh,These functions can now be found in the XML Ospace.In Livelink 9.2 both Ospaces are available, so you may want to use thatLivelink version to do the initial conversion from LLIAPI to XML.Hans > -----Original Message-----> From: eLink Discussion: Development Discussion > [mailto:development@elinkkc.opentext.com] > Sent: woensdag 11 juli 2007 19:51> To: eLink Recipient> Subject: Oscript Modules from 9.1 SP4 to 9.7 ?> > Oscript Modules from 9.1 SP4 to 9.7 ?> Posted by lobo, adarsh on 07/11/2007 01:47 PM> > Donna,> > The module that I am working on is for the functionality of > XML export.

Hans,It means that there is no other option than going back to 9.2 and doing the conversion. So it looks like a major change if I am not wrong.Thanks,Adarsh

Message from Hans Stoop via eLinkIt is not as bad as it sounds.The global structure is the same between th eobject in LLIAPI and XML.Going via 9.2 will make it easier move your own functions to the newoprhans. In 9.5 I had problems deleting the XML orphans from my modules.I found it easier to move my code around in 9.2 and then finish it offin 9.5.Hans > -----Original Message-----> From: eLink Discussion: Development Discussion > [mailto:development@elinkkc.opentext.com] > Sent: donderdag 12 juli 2007 8:54> To: eLink Recipient> Subject: Oscript Modules from 9.1 SP4 to 9.7 ?> > Oscript Modules from 9.1 SP4 to 9.7 ?> Posted by lobo, adarsh on 07/12/2007 02:52 AM> > Hans,> > It means that there is no other option than going back to 9.2 > and doing the conversion.
