  • 1.  Conversion of Edge (IE Mode) into Edge Business Objects

    Posted 16 days ago

    Hello,

    We are about to upgrade from 6.4.3 to 7.1.2.  Due to the sunsetting of Internet Explorer , we did the work to create our business objects to run against Edge running in Internet Explorer mode.

    When we move over to the new version we will be importing these business objects over.  once the import is done, would we then need to run the Application Modeller Conversion tool to convert these fully into Edge?

    Hi Stephen,

    Nope, if you intend to keep using Edge IE mode you don't need to make large adjustments your objects. They should run as-is in Edge IE mode with only the slightest of changes. The only adjustment is to have your object start Edge rather than IE, same goes for stopping the browser. And you have to add your URL to the list of sites to run in IE mode within Edge.

    Hi Stephen Eric Jones,

    If you do not intend to use the IE Compatibility mode in Edge and fully start working on edge automation then- Yes you would have to re-spy everything and change the attributes. Additionally you can use Application Modeller conversion tool to convert your HTML based objects to Edge(Web based) Objects, but there is no guarantee that it should work perfectly, I would not rely on it.

    It's a bit of a pain ,

    ideally I would like to do the import of the process into version 7, run the processes for a couple of weeks etc and then port one process at a time into Edge running fully edge,  but because IE mode is based upon URL's i would have to port all my processes based upon that URL at the same time.

    Maybe i should look into converting into running on the Chrome instead which i can then do process at a time.

    Stephen Eric Jones it is indeed, also you would want to check if your IE web URLs are being supported on the modern browsers e.g. Edge, Chrome, Firefox etc if some of your URL(Mostly these are legacy web applications) aren't supported on Modern browsers then you would anyway have to enable the IE Compatible mode on the Edge Browser until those legacy web apps are being made to be supported on modern browsers by application teams, in these cases you won't have to do more of changes - Just the path to Edge in Modeller and with IE Compatibility mode on over edge. 

    It is worth checking all your URLs on Edge/Chrome manually first and then migrate everything one by one to Edge as per your your approach you said earlier.

    Hi Stephen, 

    Indeed, with the checkered history of IE and promises of compatibility from MS over the years, I do not take Edge serious as the next universal browser for the near future. In our case: whatever we decided not to run in Edge IE mode was converted to Chrome. And we will eventually move a way from Edge IE mode in favor of Chrome altogether. And yes, it is quite a bit of work to do so, but what can you do?
