Dialog: Library Reference Conversion

Function: The dialog defines how references to libraries which are no longer available should be handled. Note: The undefined library references can be found in the Global Library Manager located in the POUs view.

Call: When opening a CoDeSys V2.3 project in V3, the dialog opens when the converter detects a library which cannot be used anymore in the current CODESYS version.

Tip

A CoDeSys V2.3 project can be converted into a CODESYS V3 project only if the CODESYS V2.3 Converter package is installed in CODESYS V3. The package is available in the CODESYS Store International.

Table 127. What do you want to do?

Convert and install the library as well.

The converter also converts the library file into the new format. It remains referenced in the project. It is installed automatically in the library repository in the "Other" category. If the library does not provide the necessary project information for an installation, then the Enter Project Information dialog opens for the information to be added.

Use the following library that has already been installed

The previously used library is replaced by another library. The Browse button opens a dialog for selecting from the local library repository.

Ignore the library. The reference will not appear in the converted project

The library reference is removed from the project.



Remember this mapping for all future occurrences of that library reference

The settings made here in the dialog are also used for future project conversions.
