Before you migrate existing Classic Agent scripts to the Open Agent, review the Agent Options listed below to determine if any additional action is required to facilitate the migration.
Classic Agent Option | Action for Open Agent |
---|---|
OPT_AGENT_CLICKS_ONLY |
Option not needed. Note: Use
OPT_REPLAY_MODE for switching between high-level (API) clicks and low-level clicks.
|
OPT_CLOSE_MENU_NAME | Not supported by Open Agent. |
OPT_COMPATIBLE_TAGS | Option not needed. |
OPT_COMPRESS_WHITESPACE | Not supported by Open Agent. |
OPT_DROPDOWN_PICK_BEFORE_GET | Option not needed. The Open Agent performs this action by default during replay. |
OPT_EXTENSIONS | Option not needed. |
OPT_GET_MULTITEXT_KEEP_EMPTY_LINES | Not supported by Open Agent. |
OPT_KEYBOARD_LAYOUT | Not supported by Open Agent. |
OPT_MENU_INVOKE_POPUP | No action. Pop-up menu handling using the Open Agent does not need such an option. |
OPT_MENU_PICK_BEFORE_GET | Option not needed. |
OPT_NO_ICONIC_MESSAGE_BOXES | Option not needed. |
OPT_PLAY_MODE | Option not needed. |
OPT_RADIO_LIST | Open Agent always sees RadioList items as individual objects. |
OPT_REL1_CLASS_LIBRARY | Obsolete option. |
OPT_REQUIRE_ACTIVE | Use the option OPT_ENSURE_ACTIVE instead. |
OPT_SCROLL_INTO_VIEW | Option not needed. Open Agent only requires scrolling into view for low-level replay. By default, high-level replay is used, so no scrolling needs to be performed. However, CaptureBitmap never scrolls an object into view. |
OPT_SET_TARGET_MACHINE | Option not needed. |
OPT_SHOW_OUT_OF_VIEW | Option not needed. Out-of-view objects are always recognized. |
OPT_TEXT_NEW_LINE | Option not needed. The Open Agent always uses Enter to type a new line. |

OPT_TRAP_FAULTS | Fault trap is no longer active. |
OPT_TRAP_FAULTS_FLAGS | Fault trap is no longer active. |
OPT_TRIM_ITEM_SPACE | Option not needed. If required, use a * wildcard instead. |
OPT_USE_ANSICALL | Not supported by Open Agent. |
OPT_USE_SILKBEAN | SilkBean is not supported on the Open Agent. |
OPT_VERIFY_APPREADY | Option not needed. The Open Agent performs this action by default. |
OPT_VERIFY_CLOSED | Option not needed. The Open Agent performs this action by default. |
OPT_VERIFY_COORD | Option not needed. The Open Agent does not typically check for native input in order to allow clicking outside of an object. |
OPT_VERIFY_CTRLTYPE | Option not needed. |
OPT_VERIFY_EXPOSED | Option not needed. The Open Agent performs this action when it sets a window to active. OPT_ENSURE_ACTIVE_OBJECT_DEF should yield the same result. |
