FWD » Core Development » Conversion Tools

I had some really unexpected failures when converting even simple code. After investigations I discovered that I had the multithreading conversion activated using -sd2t0 command line parameter. After switching to -sd2 it went back to normal.

There was only one file to be converted and the content was simplified to:

DEFINE VARIABLE anArray AS Progress.Json.ObjectModel.JsonArray NO-UNDO.

When working on multi-threading, multiple contexts were created for SymbolResolver. So different wa.propathClassDicts in initPossibleClasses() and getBuilInClasses().
The conversion was abruptly ended and in log I could read:

WARNING: Null annotation (full-java-class) for DEFINE [DEFINE_VARIABLE] @1:1 (2791728742403)
