Migrating code that instantiates OSObject directly
If your Version 3.0 applications directly instantiate OSObjects, you must migrate the OSObjects used in this manner as follows:
1. From the System Transcript, select Browse References from the Tools menu.
2. In the displayed prompter, type OSObject and select OK. A References browser opens.
3. Scroll through the list of methods that reference OSObject and locate references in your own classes.
4. For each method requiring migration, change all occurrences of OSObject to OSPtr and save the method.
5. Version all classes changed as a result of completing step 4.
