Converting ExpressionBuilder References
When upgrading from TeamConnect 3.2 or earlier, searches that use ExpressionBuilder and directly reference custom fields will fail.
As a result, you must rewrite these searches to use SearchCriteria. Use the ExpressionBuilderHighlighterTool to analyze customizations for references to the ExpressionBuilder class.
To detect existing references to ExpressionBuilder in your code:
- Open the installation directory of TeamConnect on the application server.
- Navigate to the following folder from the installation directory:
\upgrade\tools\external\ExpressionBuilderHighlighterTool. - Open the
upgrade.propertiesfile. - Update the file to point to the TeamConnect database.
- Run the
analyze.batscript.
The analyze.bat script highlights all references.
