PI ACE is deprecated... and PISteamTable ?

Hi,

simple question: is PISteamTable deprecated?

PI ACE, which is where that dll was, is deprecated, so as a result, so is PISteamTable?

I ask because for old projects that I will have to migrate, they use that dll and PI ACE will not be installed in the new environments: will it be only enough to copy the dll?

 

 

Thanks for reply.

  • Just a side note ... the problem with installing really old-and-deprecated apps like PI ACE in new environments is that sometimes the Old and the New do not mix. Let's pretend you have a really old server with PI ACE running. It will be very difficult to modify that old code because the last version of Visual Studio that supported PI ACE was 2013. So you are quite stuck in the past if you do not also have VS 2013 laying around somewhere. PI ACE officially supported VB.NET in .NET Framework 3.5. I don't even know if .NET Framework 3.5 can be installed on a new machine - maybe it can, maybe it can't. And while VB.NET is still supported in .NET Framework 4.x, it is stopped being supported directly by Microsoft since .NET 5, although a community-supported version is available as an add-on. Granted, Microsoft does contribute to the community project but still it is not an official part of .NET.

  • Good to know.. I'm moving more and more to C# when I write code; the only reason I stayed with VB.NET is because most of the developers didn't know or use C#.
