<div dir="ltr">Thanks for the answers.<div><br></div><div>I share Samuel opinion that the changes from Scilab 5 to Scilab 6 are much important than previous ones (and I have experienced all of them since starting with Scilab 2.6!). In the previous cases, functionnalities became obsolote; this time they change... This is a much more difficult to deal with</div><div><br></div><div>I do not know, Samuel, how you plan to review all your codes. As for me this should be a daunting task:</div><div>- I have arorund 1400 Scilab functions, representing something like 70 000 lines of code, containing around 20 000 additions or subtractions; so I cannot imagine reviewing all this code;</div><div>- Another avenue is to devise a battery of tests covering all possible cases; this should be less costly, but could miss some relevant cases; and this means in my cases extending the battery of tests, a useful task anyway, but also costly </div><div><br><div>The command warning stop seems to be a good idea for dealing with this problem, but it has also major drawbacks: you should put it in the .start file, to prevent users to generate wrong results, but this will also stop programs that work perfectly. So I do not think it will help dealing with my concern that inexperimented users could generate wrong results with a toolbox such as mine. Am I missing something? </div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, I fully agree with Samuel that <span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8px">more and more publicity MUST be done about how to translate Scilab 5 code and modules into SCilab 6 code and modules, and maybe they will convince me that I have overestimated the problems...</span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8px"><br></span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8px">Regards</span></div><div><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-size:12.8px"><br></span></div><div>Éric</div><div><br></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">2016-02-16 13:58 GMT+01:00 Clément David <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:clement.david@scilab-enterprises.com" target="_blank">clement.david@scilab-enterprises.com</a>></span>:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Hello guys,<br>

Just a pointer there : about the stacksize re-introduction or not please comment on <a href="http://bugzilla" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://bugzilla</a>.<br>
