Inline Code Backwards Compatibility

trungdien

Hi All,

I just have a general question about the new (>=3.0) versions of OpenSesame. I have over the last couple years programmed many different experiments with pure python code within OpenSesame. That said, they were all created in < 3.0 and I am afraid that the new versions will require many changes to the code itself.

My questions is rather general– Is it worth going back and altering all the code to make the switch to >=3.0, or am I not missing out on anything substantial?

Best,

Hi,

In principle, experiments created in 2.9 and earlier should run without modification in 3.0 and later, with the exception of a handful of backward incompatible changes described here:

In practice, problems sometimes do occur, but that's easy to test by simply opening the experiments in the latest version of OpenSesame and seeing if they run.

Cheers!
