Updating DLL references for your GUI extensions

If you are upgrading from a version older than SDL Tridion 2013, and if you built a GUI extension for SDL Tridion, recompile (and possibly modify) your code.

About this task

For architectural reasons, two assemblies have been split off of the assembly Tridion.Web.UI.Models.TCM54.dll:

  • Tridion.Web.UI.Models.Interfaces
  • Tridion.Web.CMUtils

Tridion.Web.UI.Models.TCM54.dll is now an internal-only DLL.

Procedure

  1. If your code references the Models assembly, you need to recompile it against the new assemblies. (If your extension does not interact with Content Manager, you do not need Tridion.Web.CMUtils.)
  2. If your GUI extension contains a customized list view (that is, if you changed the list definition file for one more specific lists in specific views), your custom list view will no longer work, but raise no errors either. To upgrade your list view to work again, refer to the new GUI Extension API documentation.
