Is there any additional documentation besides the 2 pages at the end of "Developing DIAdem extensions.pdf"?
I have an extensive system of GPI-dlls that has worked without much adaptation since the days of Diadem 8.1. The last version of the GPI toolkit before the 2015 update compiled my code with no issues.
Now, with the 2015 update, there are many issues. The "Maintaining existing GPI projects" gives no hint. As it stands, it looks like I will have to recreate the whole system from scratch. (Which can be a good idea, but now I have an unexpected very long lead time added.)
Is there an expert I can talk to?

Hi jbrandim,
Thanks for posting on the discussion forums. The PDF looks to be the best resource. What types of issues are you running into? What functionality is included with the GPI-dlls that are having issues? Is the last version that worked correctly 2014?
Thanks,

The last of version of Diadem we had available was 2012. It looks like a lot of things were depreciated and removed. Data types and constants now show up as undefined, even if I include the "depreciated" folder as suggested.
I got a PM with a contact to email. I will direct my questions there.

For anyone else with this issue...
An NI developer PM'd me that the DLLs should work with Diadem 2015 (32-bit) if I recompiled them with Visual Studio, and made sure the VC Redistributable was installed on the client machine.
I've tried this with VS 2013, and it works fine. That is sufficient for my immediate need.
