Hi Simon,
you do realize that Qx 1.0 is out? As its relatively close to the 0.8 line,
I'd recommend to migrate to 1.0.
I assume that you used the Qx migration script? Most likely that the best
you can do for automating the process. I'd assume that of the >1,000 lines
of qx.legacy in your code a lot of them will have the same underlying
reason. I'd not be surprised if at least some of them can be handled by
search/replace in your editor or (a bit more powerful) with a "skript" along
the line
perl -p -i -e 's/some_regexp/replacement/'
In a (not that large) migration project I was very happy with the Qx
approach of being able to run the old application with the help of the
qx.legacy class and just migrate step by step. Sometimes I thought
afterwards I could have used bigger steps in making the transition for
efficiency.
Good luck and best regards,
Fritz
