Compatibility

This release is not fully compatible with the originating openSCADA release 1.1 or earlier. The following compatibility issues are known:

  • Namespaces of XML files have been changed from http://openscada.org to http://eclipse.org/SCADA
  • Classes were prefixed with org.eclipse.scada instead of org.openscada
  • System properties were prefixed with org.eclipse.scada instead of org.openscada
  • Some DA attributes were prefixed with org.eclipse.scada instead of org.openscada. This might result in several components (like level alarms) not to detect that functionality.
  • Some CA factories were prefixed with org.eclipse.scada instead of org.openscada. This will result in the non-availability of components unless their factories are changed in the configration.

See also https://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseSCADA/MigrationFromOpenSCADA for more information.

Internationalization

The main language will be English. Some components are translated into German.
