Appendix C. Moving to ATL 8

This appendix covers the significant changes that ATL developers deal with when moving projects from ATL 3 to ATL 8. We talk specifically about externally visible changespotential porting issues, bug fixes, and new featuresrather than about internal changes (the rest of the book is for that). The changes from ATL 7 to ATL 8 are extremely minor (a couple of bug fixes and removal of some insecure string calls) and don't require any discussion; moving from ATL 7 to ATL 8 just works.
