Migrate custom projects

In WebSphere Commerce Developer v7.0, only custom projects need to be migrated. The migration process involves exporting assets as archive files and then importing the archive files.

The assets to be exported:

• Custom static store assets

• Custom Java code

• Custom JSP files

Procedure

1. To export a custom Web project from a WebSphere Commerce Developer v6.0 development environment workspace:

   1. Open the WebSphere Commerce Developer v6.0 development environment workspace and open the J2EE perspective.

   2. Select the project containing the customized code. Right-click the mouse button and select Export .

   3. Select Zip file and click Next .

   4. In the list of resources under Select the resources to export , deselect Stores, then select all contents under Stores. Ensure the project is selected.

   5. Ensure the Create only selected directories option is selected

   6. Click Browse and choose a path to save the exported ZIP file.

   7. Ensure Compress the contents of the file is checked.

   8. Click Finish to complete the exporting,

2. You need to correct the paths in the compressed ZIP file for the Stores project. The directory path has changed from:

   • JavaSource

   to

   • src

3. To export a custom Web project from WebSphere Commerce Developer v5.6.1, or a custom Java project from version 5.6.1 or version 6.0:

   • Stores/Web Content/storename

   to

   • Stores/WebContent/storename

5. Import a custom project

   1. Open the WebSphere Commerce Developer v7.0 development environment workspace and open the Java EE perspective.

   2. Select the corresponding project.

   3. Right-click the target project and click Import .

   4. Select the type of source that will be imported and click Next .

   5. Click Browse to find the file to import.

   6. If you are asked to overwrite any files, select Yes for each file.

      Notes:

      1. The class path for each custom project must be updated to resolve the dependencies on libraries and between projects.
