Migration of Projects Created in Previous Versions

Projects created in previous versions of TIBCO Business Studio might need to be migrated to the current version before they can be opened, depending on how you import them.

• To migrate a project created in a Studio version prior to v5.x, you must import using File > Import > Existing Studio Projects into Workspace.

  Use the import dialog box to successfully guide you through importing your projects in the correct sequence.

  You cannot checkout your existing projects directly from a version control system. See Importing Pre-Version 5.x Projects into TIBCO Business Studio - BPM Edition Version 5.x .

• If you are importing a project from SVN, then you might be unable to access all files in the imported project until you have reviewed the Problems view and resolved the problem covering migration using the Quick Fix provided.

  Alternatively, if there is a problem marker on the project in the Project Explorer view, press Ctrl+1 and look for the Problem

  "Project 'xxx' is of an older version and needs to be migrated."

  Select the "Migrate the Project" quick fix in the popup.

• If you are importing a single file, then you might need to migrate this file using the Quick Fix available.
• If you are importing a project created in a newer version of TIBCO Business Studio, you can see a problem marker (for example, "Project 'xxx' was created by (or migrated to) a newer version of the product and should not be used with this version"). Install a newer version of TIBCO Business Studio if that is appropriate or return to an earlier version of the product/project.
