Terminology changes

Dernière publication : Aug 10, 2026
A new TIBCO EBX® release can introduce new vocabulary for users. To preserve the backward compatibility, these terminology changes do not usually impact the API. Consequently, Java class names, method names, data services operation names, etc. still use the older version terminology. This chapter purpose is to facilitate the correspondence of the old term in the API to the new terms.
