I'm finally making the move to 2.8 SP3 from 2.6. Suggestions or "gotchas"
that people encountered is most helpful.

Thanks

few things come to mind ...

a) RETURN NIL [or something] at end of EVERY method
b) STRONG TYPING - make sure all you dwords and words etc are sorted
c) many PSZ strings and Strings have been sorted - tho the manual
shows a few that haven't been sorted when they have !

main libs affected are fabs [word dword and anything else you can
thing of = geoff has made many fixes] .... and a few like AF_hook and
AF_Tabcontrol etc [psz ing]

Read the readmes very carefully - for 2.7 and 2.8 and all the SPs in
between. Gather them all into one big consolidated document. They
highlight some important class changes you need to know about.

Turn off warnings as errors initially and fix the important errors.

Then progressively turn them on. One of the important "errors" you will
come across are methods that return NIL and logic from different exit
points.
