Hi Adrian:
Thanks for the info.
The challenge I have is that I'd like to support a forward compatible
application on an existing 9.04 instance. Specifically, I have a
Component I developed on a 9.04 instance that I'd like to run
(unaltered) on 10.x and beyond. I'd like it to be plug-in play so that I
can support it (and test it) on 9.04 and 10.4 without code changes.
Now I'm going to have to have at least 2 instances - one for each
release - of OFBiz in order to properly test and support.
So, I will do to do as you suggest, or alternatively not support it on 10.x.
Thanks again and Best Regards,
Ruth

Ruth,
A simple search and replace will make your modifications compatible
with the newer version.
The change was the result of a months-long discussion on the dev
mailing list (August 2009 to October 2009). If you want more detail,
you can look it up.

Thanks BJ.
I guess OFBiz is not too backward compatible. Oh well, too bad. This
breaks all kinds of things in 9.04 that I'd like to carry over to 10.x.
Best Regards,

Could someone explain to me - and ignorant OFBiz committer wannabe
- why
the following method in version 9.04:
public static GenericDelegator getGenericDelegator(String
delegatorName) { ... }
No longer exists in the DelegatorFactory class in the most recent
trunk
version?
In its place I see:
public static Delegator getDelegator(String delegatorName) {...}
Is there a reason this was changed or taken out? Should I be calling a
different method to get my 9.04 code to work with the current trunk
version?
Thanks much.
Ruth
