Is there any migration guide to update from YARP v2?

[owocado]

Hello community,

I am currently using very old version of YARP v2.3.72 in my 5 year old C++ project. I am in the process of updating it to latest YARP version and I was reading release notes for each release since 2.3.72 carefully to see what breaking changes I need to account for but it start to feel exhausting and each release note is HUGE.

I am only using yarp::os and yarp::sig libraries. I was hoping if there is a official/unofficial migration guide that gives summary of all the breaking changes between 2.3.72 to 3.9.0, sort of TLDR maybe, otherwise I can do it the way what I'm doing - going through each release note one by one and go from there which would take weeks. I'm only trying to save some time if possible. 😄

If anyone can give me guidance/tips on this, it would be really appreaciated. Thanks for reading and wish you a great day ahead!

Hello, @owocado. Back in the day our org roboticslab-uc3m followed the migration path detailed in roboticslab-uc3m/questions-and-answers#83. There are several details specific to us, but perhaps it could be of use for you as well. Note it only covers the transition from 2.x to 3.0.

Oh this is really helpful resource to get myself to 3.0, thank you for sharing this. Once I transition my old code to 3.0, I can slowly update it to support latest YARP release from there.

Thank you very much for taking the time to respond promptly and wish you a great day ahead!
