SQLTagsManager in Ignition 8.0

Module Development
1

Hi, I find that there is an interface named " SQLTagsManager" in Ignition 7.9.

But I did not find that interface in ignition 8.0. Is this class deprecated? Is there any alternative interface ?

GatewayTagManager is probably the equivalent in 8.0: http://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition80/8.0.14/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/gateway/tags/model/GatewayTagManager.html

Morning sir. Another question.
The previous class ‘TagProvider’ from ‘com.inductiveautomation.ignition.gateway.sqltags’ has also changed.

I find that there is another ‘TagProvider’ in ‘com.inductiveautomation.ignition.common.tags.model’. But there are some methods missing.

Is there another alternative class for the previous ‘TagProvider’ in ignition sdk 7.9?

How can I find the all the changes in ignition sdk 8.0?

You already found the new TagProvider. What are you trying to accomplish?

There are a lot of changes in the gateway/SDK between 7.9 and 8.0 and there is no guide or documented that details all of them. The javadocs and example modules are all that is available.

There is a method “browseTagInfo” in the package of my team. It will return a “BrowserResults”

I am not sure how to replace it.

Well that’s not on TagProvider, it’s on the old SQLTagsManager.

The replacement is probably TagManager#browseAsync
