Hi everyone,

I just tried to install in 6.0 an atom module developed by one of my colleagues 
for 5.5.X,  without success.
Which problem have you met?
I tough naively that just bumping the version requirement from 5.X wih X>=2 to X.0 
with X>=6,  in addition to small fixes in the loader/builder would do it but I was 
wrong.
As anyone ported 5.5 modules to 6.0?
Yes, "uman" is available for both versions. It has only a library of Scilab functions (so-called "macros"). The only difference -- for the binary, that i have created myself and uploaded as is -- is that each library must be compiled with genlib() of the given version, because the libraries packaging has changed between 5 and 6. And that's all. Sources are identical (with small adaptations to 6.0, avoiding using features that work only with 6.0 such that recursive extraction ; otherwise, then testing the version and switching the processing accordingly) .

So, if your module has only Scilab functions, you may just genlib() its ~\macros\ directory and try with the updated library.

If the module has a gateway, i guess that it shall have as well to be recompiled with the proper compiler(s).

Regards
Samuel
