Hello,
-- In the new 8.6.2. version the way the source code is stored in the repository has changed. Because of this change I cannot import code in a 8.6.1 enviornment that was exported in a 8.6.2 environment. Is there a workaround for this problem? I tried File Out/File In. This works but I loose all version history and the categories are also gone :-( Regards, Jan. You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "VA Smalltalk" group.

-- talks about this. Use the new (8.6.2) library access primitives (DLLs) in 8.6.1 and you'll be OK. You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "VA Smalltalk" group.

The DLLs are named emntv50.dll and emsrv50.dll John You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "VA Smalltalk" group.

In reply to this post by Wayne Johnston
Wayne, thanks for the link.
-- I am not really sure I find the text on that page clear enough to really make up a rule what to do. Let's make up a scenario: A project has a productive version of its software that is written in say, 8.5. There is a need to make fixes for that version in 8.5. The next version will be shipped based on the latest 8.6.x It is not desirable to have two libraries, so they need to work on at least the productive version in 8.5. Does the page above say that the DLLs esvmxx.dll and emsrvxx.dll (same for the Unix .so's) need to be replaced in the 8.5 installations with the new ones where xx=50, so that everybody on the team can work with the same library and no one destroys code when re-saving on another locale/platform? How far back will this DLL/so exchange work? 7.5? 6.0x? Thanks Joachim Am Montag, 12. September 2016 13:43:13 UTC+2 schrieb Wayne Johnston:

Joachim - Once the library has been accessed with an 8.6.2 image, the only 100% safe way to access it from an earlier release is to replace the DLLs (or SOs) with those distributed with 8.6.2. This corresponds to the 2nd row of the table in the Migration Guide. The 2 DLLs (or SOs) will work at least as far back as VisualAge Smalltalk 6.0. The Migration Guide page has been updated as follows:
Does this make things clearer? John On Wednesday, October 5, 2016 at 9:12:17 AM UTC+2, Joachim Tuchel wrote:
