  Upgrade Tools
   
The Upgrade tools convert iShell 1.2 projects and documents to iShell 2.0 formats. New files are created with different extensions and saved in the original folders.

  • Project: Lets you select an iShell 1.2 project file for conversion.
  • Document: Lets you select an iShell 1.2 document for conversion.
  • Folder: Lets you select a folder for conversion. All nested project and documents are converted.

Only the bundled iShell 1.2 plugins are supported by this tool. 3rd party plugins will need their own compatibility scripts. There is not always a perfect translation between 1.2 and 2.0 features, so please test your projects after conversion. Here are some special cases to pay attention to:

  • Events
    • Loaded -> Offscreen
    • Not Loaded -> Error
    • Cache Updating -> Disk Cache
    • Cache Updated -> Disk Cache
  • Commands
    • Display -> Refresh
    • Field Text -> Set Attribute
    • Field Variable -> Get/Set Attribute
