Problems with VC in NW 7.0 SP18?

[Former Member]

After applying SP18 we are running into massive problems with existing, unmodified visual composer models. Error messages like

>>> JSPCompiler >>> ERROR in Compiling :JSPFileInfo :588073642

JSP File : /usr/sap/JWP/JC02/j2ee/cluster/server2/apps/sap.com/irj/servlet_jsp/irj/root/web-inf/portal/portalapps/com.siemens.pct.ptd.dgy.main_view/jsp/aaddgy.jsp

Is out dated : false com.sapportals.portal.prt.servlets_jsp.server.jsp.JSPCompiler@402ed2c5

are thrown at runtime (VC iview with deltalink was added to portal page; unchanged portal page in preview mode). I don't understand the "class is out dated" error: is there a need to recompile / redeploy Visual Composer apps with SP18 which where embedded manually in portal pages (deltalink)?
