Interstage Studio User's Guide

Appendix B Migrating Resources from a Previous Version

This section explains how to migrate the resources developed with workbench of a previous version (Interstage Studio and Interstage Apworks).

Migration procedure

To use a workspace or project created in a previous version, follow the respective procedures below. For notes on workspace and project migration, refer to the sections in the document.

Using a workspace created in a previous version

Launch the workbench and specify the workspace of the previous version in the "Startup" dialog box - the workspace and the projects stored in it will then be ready for use.

Using projects created in a previous version

To migrate some projects in a workspace (instead of the entire workspace), follow the procedure below:

1. Copy the project to the workspace folder by using Explorer or another file management program.

2. From the menu bar, select [File] > [Import], and then select [General] > [Existing Projects into Workspace].

3. On the [Import Projects] page, in [Select root directory], specify the workspace folder to which the project was copied in step 1.

4. The list of the projects that can be imported is displayed in the [Projects]. Make sure that the project to be imported is selected, then click [Finish].

Using projects created by ComponentDesigner

If you want to migrate ComponentDesigner projects, they can be imported using the following procedure:

1. From the menu bar, select [File] > [Import], and then select [Other] > [Existing ComponentDesigner's Project].

2. At [Project to be Imported], specify the path of the project file to be imported.

3. Check that the project name is displayed at [Project name], and then click [Finish].

Point

Some workspace and project settings can be automatically updated using the [Update Workspace/Projects of Previous Version] command. For details, refer to "B.6 Automatic Update of the Workspace and Projects".

Note

The message "Project of an old version cannot be built. Update the project." may be displayed in the Problems view when the build is performed if "B.6 Automatic Update of the Workspace and Projects" is not performed. Building will be possible after performing "B.6 Automatic Update of the Workspace and Projects".
