Does SQLTCPExhItemSender ring a bell?

I try to run the creation steps for a TW application on our DEV environment and I get this error:

 

An unknown error occurred while executing '/* Create or alter stored procedure saveAttachment. */

create or alter procedure saveAttachment
@directory_path exh_parameter_nvarchar ,
@file_name exh_parameter_nvarchar ,
@byte_array exh_return_binary ,
@overwrite exh_no_yes ,
@output_path exh_information output
as external name SQLTCPExhItemSender.UserDefinedProcedures.saveAttachment;
'.

Error: 'Assembly 'SQLTCPExhItemSender' was not found in the SQL catalog of database 'BRB'.'.

I wonder if this is still required, it appears this is a DLL file used to extract the attachments from an email.
Is this something that comes from Thinkwise or is this something a former colleague of mine thought up before I was working here?
I seem to remember we have had issues before with emails when the customer started using the new Office 365 outlook interface. We had issues when the user would try to drag an email from Outlook into the Thinkwise application, I suspect that this SP is part of that solution?

That is the old DLL to be used for exchange connection. Since functionality exists for this in the software factory this module is no longer supported. If still used I would advise to replace it with a system flow.

Hi ​@Erwin Ekkel I tried to remove this subroutine from my branch in the SF but I cannot delete it:

 

Another weird thing I noticed is that I needed to disable the “hide generated” prefilter to be able to see this subroutine while the grid shows Generated as false…..

not sure how to proceed :(
