Apparently the cause is some structures have been made opaque in the new version. In my case, the structure that breaks the code is BIO, as I used some of its previously public properties in my filter. Is there any transition documentation page that can help figuring out how I can adapt it accordingly? Or is the way my filter was written at the time hopelessly broken now, and a different approach to do the same needed?
