This table outlines some System Modeler LDL+ commands, their functions and how the commands differ from their LDL equivalents in EA Developer 3.3. Refer to the Agile Business Suite Developer Online Help for more information on any LDL+ command.
This syntax translation occurs automatically upon migration of a LCIF file (.mdl) or versionable element extracted from Enterprise Application Developer 3.x into Agile Business Suite.
Note: The LCIF file or element being migrated should be validated without errors prior to extraction. If errors are detected during migration, the affected logic is marked invalid.
Regardless of how logic commands are presented in the following table, logic commands in System Modeler are not case sensitive under any circumstances.
