Upgrading to Synergy/DE 9: What to expect
As illustrated throughout the earlier conference sessions, there are many benefits of migrating to Synergy/DE version 9. Because v9 has a better, stricter compiler, it may find issues that you will need to resolve in your code. During this session, we will cover what you can expect during your migration and how to ensure the smoothest migration possible. |
