Required Migration Steps for 3.1.x to 3.4 Migration

The following steps are required for updating your 3.1.x project to 3.3:

  1. Open the 3.1.x project and project files in General Interface Builder 3.3 and resave all project files.
    If you're using Firefox and have files encoded in UTF-16, open the 3.1.x project and project files in Internet Explorer first and resave the files before opening in Firefox. See Character Encoding.
  2. Specify class loading options to improve application performance with the new dynamic class loading features in General Interface Builder 3.3. See Class Loading in Migration for 3.1.x to 3.4 Migration.
  3. Modify records that specify auto loading in the application configuration file. New auto load options have been added. See Auto Load Options.
  4. If your projects use add-ins, update the add-ins as follows:
    • Charting and custom add-ins If your project uses Charting or custom add-ins, enable the add-in on the Add-ins panel of the Project Settings dialog (Project > Project Settings).
    • Project settings Application configuration files must be modified for custom add-ins to work in General Interface 3.3. See Project Settings for 3.1.x to 3.4 Migration.
    • Mapping add-in If your project includes data mapping, see Data Mapping for 3.1.x to 3.4 Migration.
  5. If your projects have rules files, update all rules files. See Data Mapping for 3.1.x to 3.4 Migration.
  6. If your projects use any custom XSL, you must update the XSL. See XSL Changes for 3.1.x to 3.4 Migration.
    If any project files in your migrated project are displayed in red in the Project Files palette, you need to update the references to those files. Right-click the file in the Project Files palette and choose Edit Profile. Modify the path in the URI field and click Save.
  7. Migrate your updated 3.3 projects to 3.4. See Migrating Projects from 3.2 or 3.3 to 3.4.
