Errors in old lisp's

I inherited a firm with a ton of lisp's and arx files. They were written
for AutoCAD 14, and now, when I try and port them to 2004 (ADT), I
occasionally get corrupted drawings. Is there a list somewhere of lisp
commands (or variables) that might cause drawing corruption in 2004? I can
run the lisp file through migration tools "AutoLISP Compatibility Analyzer",
but not the ARX files.

I was hoping to get some relief in how to narrow down which LSP and/or ARX
files are causing the corruption. As a side note, drawing corruption did
not occur until we ported the ARX and LSP files to 2004 ADT. Basic 2004 ADT
worked fine.

One of the guys here was doing some research on it and said it might be
related to "Bloaters" and regapps and bad reactors.

Thanks!

 

The compatibility analyzer should provide adequate help with the LISP files.
However, it's not likely that you'll have much success with the ARX files.
The structure of ARX has changed quite a bit since R14, and the only way to
get them to run properly in 2004 is to recompile them. If you don't have the
source code, you're probably out of luck.

Is there a tool to analyze the ARX (C file), like you can with the LSP
compatibility analyzer, if I have the source files?

 

As Paul said, they're incompatible, peroid, they don't need analysis. Recompile from the source code.
