New WOLips is going to go stable this week (I thought yesterday, but
things came up). Here are the upgrade notes. For anyone else who has
upgraded, please let me know if I'm forgetting something. This will
go on the Wiki at some point.
Warnings
* Read this: http://wolips.blogspot.com/2008/09/its-alive.html (it's
99.53% up-to-date)
* New WOLips REQUIRES Eclipse 3.4. It WILL NOT work on Eclipse 3.3.
* New WOLips IS NOT BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE. You cannot share a project
between old and new WOLips without manually managing the project
metadata differences.
* New WOLips will MODIFY its project files. COMMIT ALL OF YOUR CODE
BEFORE UPGRADING.
Global Changes
* ~/Library/wobuild.properties is now ~/Library/Application Support/
WOLips/wolips.properties
* If your frameworks are in the standard place, this will be
automatically created on the first startup
* If your frameworks are not in the standard place, startup one and
let it create the default file and then modify it to suit
* Builds require Ant 1.7 now (Tiger ships with 1.6), so you may need
to upgrade Ant
Converting a Framework (Assumes the standard project layout)
* Create a blank Framework project
* Copy the blank build.xml over top of yours
* Copy woproject/* from the blank project into your woproject folder
* Remove woproject/ant.*
* Change the build.xml's project name to your project name
Converting an Application (Assumes the standard project layout)
* Create a blank Application project
* Copy the blank build.xml over top of yours
* Change the build.xml's project name to your project name
* Copy woproject/* from the blank project into your woproject folder
* Remove woproject/ant.*
* Edit the WOLips Deployment Project Preferences in Eclipse and set
your embedding preferences
Things to Check Afterwards
* Make sure that all of your framework's framework dependencies are
also included in your Application (this is necessary to control the
ordering of dependencies)
* Make sure that ERExtensions comes in front of JavaFoundation in the
Order and Export panel for your Application (this should be done
automatically)
* Does your application still run?
* Does your application still build?
