Unable to open a version

[mlstoppa]

Hi @sebjulliand It looks like with the latest version of Elias software it's not possible to open a version anymore. I assume it's because an older Arcad version is installed on the IBMi (Version 13.02.11), so some parameters are not allowed yet. This is the log:

Do you think it is possible to somehow manage the coexistence of older and newer versions?

Thank you very much! Lucia

Hi @mlstoppa , we could manage this for some simple cases like the one you showed. But we won't go as far as fully supporting versions of ARCAD that are this old 😅 (v13.2 is 3 years old!) But a least for commands, I'll try to see if the command processor can manage these cases (like catching CPD0043 and re-run the command without the unknown parameters). If it works, it can be integrated in a future major release of the server.

The method described above works and will be released in version 2.2.0 (should be released during the second half of September).

Version 2.2.0 is out 🎉
