Re: Re: Upgrading from early 8.4 to current 8.4 hall error

Both customers have halcust, so I downloaded the latest version from Standard Install and was testing locally. I would always do this first with the customers hal and data before going anywhere near a live installation.

One customer is hosted by HW and one on their own Windows Server. They have completely different halcusts.
Both halcusts compile ok with the current version

The error is when restoring the backup from the earlier 8.4 into the new 8.4
I have tried this both with a Windows Client and with a Mac Server in terminal.


The hal errors that show are both files that are not in the halcust of either.

I would like to know what BackgroundHALShouldPause does, and how to use it. While it's listed in the HAL Primitives report, it is not used in source code and it doesn't appear in the LMS HAL...
