Changes in the J2EE Migration Wizard in Rational Web Developer V6.0

Changes have been made to the J2EE Migration Wizard in Rational Web Developer V6.0 that are common to the migration of all J2EE specification levels.

 

Project structure migration is optional

In WebSphere Studio V5.1.x through V5.1.2, project structure migration would take place simultaneously with J2EE specification level migration. Project structure migration was not optional when migrating J2EE specification levels.

In the J2EE Migration Wizard in Rational Web Developer V6.0, Migrate project structure is a separate, optional selection from Migrate project J2EE specification level. J2EE specification level migration and project structure migration may be performed independently.

 

Target server is required

In Rational Web Developer V6.0, new and existing J2EE projects migrated to a higher J2EE specification level require a target server be set on the project. Server targeting is the default mechanism of how the classpath is set on a J2EE project in V6.0. For information in setting a target server and using the J2EE Migration Wizard, refer to the online help.
