No. I resisted this change for a long time. I preferred the error messages returned by the BeanShell as - many times - they were more instructive then those now returned by the Groovy implementation. Turns out, in almost all cases all you need to do is change the name of the file to have a .groovy extension. Of course, every place you reference it, you have to change that name as well. > > 2.

What you have to change is GenericDelegator to Delegator in your code. The findByAnd and FindListIteratorByCondition methods are still supported. In fact, I see many uses of findByAnd in 12.x Freemarker templates - of all places. (Probably because it is easier to use then the "replacement" findList method.) So, there are really 2 things going on here - one of which you will need to address to upgrade: - Change the GenericDelegator to Delegator - (Optionally) change findByAnd... to "findList" and FindListIteratorByCondition to "find" Checkout the OFBiz Javadocs if you need more info on how to use the delegator.findList and delegator.find methods: http://ci.apache.org/projects/ofbiz/site/javadocs Hope that helps.
