Error description

  • When downloading EHLLAPI the versions listed in the binaries are
    not the versions that are actually being installed. The only
    exception to this is EHLLAPI 14.0.3 64-bit.
    
    However, this EHLLAPI version / build is not compatible with
    the MicroFocus UFT product that Customer use.

    ****************************************************************
    A defect in the IBM EHLLAPI Bridge code as part of an internal
    enhancement was found to be causing the issue where UFT
    generated macros contained "Window" field instead of "TeWindow"
    or "TeField". All IBM EHLLAPI Bridge v12.0.3 levels and above
    are affected.
    

Problem conclusion

  • Code changes have been made in SyncHLLAPI.DLL module of the IBM
    EHLLAPI Bridge to address this problem.
