Online documentation - WebsydianExpress v3.5 |
This document describes how to upgrade your Plex development environment for WebsydianExpress. For information on how to upgrade your WebsydianExpress runtime environment select the upgrade guide that fits your environment:
To get the new group models and objects for the development environment download and install Websydian v5.7.
Login to your host group model and select the new group models from the Websydian v5.7 distribution when prompted for library models.
When extracting to a local model it is recommended that you create a new local model and extract to that. For information on how to set the version/level and variant for each library model please read Setup WebsydianExpress Development Environment.
Variants have been added to the library group model WSYAPI. Set the variant for WSYAPI to the platform of your WebsydianExpress database.
E.g. if deploying the WebsydianExpress database on the iSeries the variant for WSYAPI should be set to "iSeries RPG400 server".
In the generate and build options go to System Definitions. Press Properties for your Windows system. In the "Pre-built C++ Libraries" section verify that the reference to the wsexpress.lib and Websydi.lib files are to the files shipped with Websydian v5.7.
In the Websydian v5.7 installation folder copy the files from Development\Express\dlls to the Release folder.
You are now ready to generate and build business processes for WebsydianExpress 1.2.
Business processes developed with WebsydianExpress 1.0/1.1 can be deployed in WebsydianExpress 1.2 without regenerating or building the business process.
If you make any updates to a WebsydianExpress function (ProcessEntryPoint, EventHandler, PageGenerator) within an existing business process, then you must regenerate and build all WebsydianExpress functions within the business process.
