Optional Migration Steps for 3.1.x to 3.4 Migration

The following steps are optional:

  1. Manually merge your customized logger.xml files with the new logging system configuration file (GI_HOME/logger.xml).
    In General Interface 3.2 and later releases, the logger.xml file has new attributes and functionality, such as sound for the logging system and class loading options. The logging file has also been moved from the GI_HOME/JSX directory to GI_HOME and must be deployed accordingly. For more information, see the General Interface Developer Guide.
  2. To take advantage of MSXML 4 or later, if installed, remove the Internet Explorer parameters from the application configuration file. See Internet Explorer Parameters.
  3. For consistent layout behavior in both Firefox and Internet Explorer using a Block, follow the recommendations specified in Browsers and Layouts for 3.1.x to 3.4 Migration.
  4. Change paths to relative URLs for more flexible development and deployment. See Relative Paths for 3.1.x to 3.4 Migration.
  5. Replace all deprecated List and Grid components with Matrix components. Note that List and Grid are not supported in Firefox.
  6. Rename resource files from .jss to .xml for easier deployment. For example, Microsoft IIS6 Server doesn't handle the .jss file extension correctly. Renaming resource files with the .xml extension prevents such deployment problems.
