Hello, im trying to compile a customization made on creo 3 in creo 2 but im not getting it to work. It doesnt compile, seems to be internal functions that are not in creo 2.

Yes, the customization works but there are some functions and properties that are modified from Creo 2 to Creo 3.

So we have to map the old and new functions listed in the release notes.

Some I could find in the document and some I couldnt.

We are still using Creo 2, so I'm not entirely familiar with what's required for Creo 3 but in a situation like yours there are a couple of things I'd check first:

API's and functions introduced in Creo 3. Usually those are listed in release notes file that is located on the protoolkit directory. If any of the new functions listed there are used in the application that you are trying to compile it's not going to work.

The compiler version and options. This is less likely to be the case but in the past I've seen situations when changing the version of Visual C I had to tweek the compiler settings and directives.
