Installation and Set Up for 3.1.x to 3.4 Migration

Before you can migrate your General Interface 3.1.x projects to 3.4, you need to migrate to 3.3. Complete these steps to migrate your 3.1.x projects to 3.3:

  1. Install General Interface 3.3. For more information about installing General Interface, see General Interface Installation.
  2. Double-click GI_Builder.html or GI_Builder.xhtml in the installation directory to start General Interface Builder in Firefox or Internet Explorer.
  3. Choose or create a workspace directory after General Interface Builder initializes. The workspace is the directory that contains your projects, custom add-ins, custom prototypes, and your user settings for General Interface Builder. Separation of the General Interface install directory from the workspace allows for easier application deployment. For more on workspaces, see the General Interface Developer Guide.
  4. Make backup copies of all projects you are migrating.
  5. Copy projects that you would like to migrate to 3.3 from your previous JSXAPPS folder into your new workspace/JSXAPPS folder.
  6. Copy any custom user prototypes from your user/prototypes directory to the workspace/prototypes directory. Components saved to this folder display in the User folder of the Component Libraries palette.
  7. Copy any custom add-ins to the JSX/addins or workspace/addins directory. Typically, add-ins to be used by a team of developers would be saved to the JSX/addins directory and posted by an administrator to a location accessible to the team. Add-ins for individual use can be saved to the workspace/addins directory.
