Tip instructions and syntaxes no more usable in classic code

The Classic mode works with a browser client. This means that some operations that were still used with the fat client but impossible with the web client are now deprecated even in Classic mode.

The most important cases are the following:

• Using the file path starting with " # @ / ". This old syntax was a serious security flaw that allowed the server to access files on the client. This is no longer possible on the web (the browser does not allow it).
• Some engine instructions are deprecated even for Classic. The Sage X3 Script keywords glossary provides a list of all the language keywords and their status:
  • Deprecated means that the keyword must no longer be used with the version 7 style programming.
  • Deprecated Classic means that even for Classic code, these functions are no longer used because they support fat client operations that are no longer possible on the web.
• Running the "Report Developer mode" is no longer possible in Classic mode due to security constraints of the browser.

When some techniques or libraries are available to support operations that were permitted with these instructions, they are detailed in documents you can find in the How to page.
