Workspaces and projects created with version 10.0 must be migrated to version 10.1 in order for you to use version 10.1 to continue developing and testing projects in the workspace. After migration, migrated projects will no longer run in versions prior to 10.1.
During migration, the IDE updates project metadata, moves your facets to version 10.1.
Note: For information on upgrading from version 8.1 to version 10.1, see Upgrading WebLogic Workshop 8.1 Applications.
When you open a workspace created with Workshop for WebLogic version 10.0, the IDE will prompt you to migrate projects in the workspace. In addition, you will need to make any changes needed to support the version 10.1 domain, such as updating the wl_home value in the domain start scripts.
To avoid errors in version 10.1, you should be sure to do the following with your workspace in version 10.0 before migrating the workspace:
If you want to migrate only certain projects, you can do so by removing the other projects (the ones you'd have closed) from the workspace before migrating (note that you can do so without deleting the removed projects from disk). You can later migrate the removed projects by importing them from the existing workspace.
As a best practice, be sure to check out version 10.0 sources before migrating to version 10.1. While source control integration from the IDE will, in most cases, work to check out files that must be writable, in some cases this is not done.
Also make sure that you add new files created in the upgrade process to your source control system. For example, if you are using the Perforce plugin, note that the Perforce Pending Changelists view does not show all of the files created in the upgrade process. For example, the com.bea.workshop.wls.core.prefs which replaces the com.bea.wlw.libmodules.core.prefs file is not added to the view. Make sure to add any new files by selecting Team > Open for Add at the project level. The new .prefs file and any other new files added to the project will be added to the view.
After migration, you might see errors in your version 10.1 workspace. In some cases, you can remove these by performing a complete clean of all projects in the workspace. To do this, click Project > Clean, then in the Clean dialog, select the Clean all projects option and click OK.
If you have renamed or moved BEA-provided library JAR files in your version 10.0 workspace, migration of those libraries might fail. This includes libraries that were provided to support project facets.
If your 10.0 project was created using the 'copy jars' option (instead of
the J2EE library option), then no automatic update of the
jars to their 10.1 counterparts will be performed.
You will need to manually copy the jars
from the current libraries into your applcation. The current Beehive and
WebLogic libraries are available at:
