Chapter 4 Migrating Projects from Earlier Versions : Project Migration Overview

Project Migration Overview
This chapter includes migration of add-on products, so that all migration information is available in one place.
Many of the actions you must take to migrate projects to the current release depend on the version you are migrating from, and the features you use. Some manual steps are required. More manual steps are required for earlier versions than for 4.x projects due to the changes in architecture.
Read the rest of this section and then check the section for the release from which you are migrating:
Check Release Notes
In all cases, check all sections in the Release Notes and take action accordingly. Release notes for all products in the same TIBCO home are located in the TIBCO_HOME/release_notes directory.
Migrating from Coherence to TIBCO BusinessEvents DataGrid Cache Provider
TIBCO DataGrid cache provider feature replaces Coherence as the built-in cache provider in version 5.0.0. A set of core Coherence functions has been renamed (and additional internal changes have been made) so that these functions can be used with either the Coherence or the TIBCO BusinessEvents DataGrid cache provider. The renamed functions are in the Standard catalog Cluster.DataGrid category. See Table 3, Mapping of Coherence Functions to TIBCO BusinessEvents DataGrid Functions for details.
Not all Coherence functions are available for use with TIBCO BusinessEvents DataGrid  When you migrate to the current release with TIBCO BusinessEvents DataGrid as the cache provider, certain Coherence functions are not migrated. In particular, the functions in the following categories are not migrated: Standard/Coherence/Constants, Standard/Coherence/Extractors, Standard/Coherence/Filters, Standard/Coherence/Query
A TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio refactoring operation, and a TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio Tools command line option are available to do the function migration for specific purposes other than general migration. See Migrating Core Coherence Functions for the TIBCO BusinessEvents Studio option and see Migrating Core Coherence Functions at the Command Line for the command-line option, both in TIBCO BusinessEvents Developer’s Guide.
Fixing Errors Due to Use of Words in Reserved Word List
As TIBCO BusinessEvents develops, the number of reserved words increases. For the current list of reserved words, check Chapter 19, Rule Language Grammar > Keywords and Other Reserved Words, in TIBCO BusinessEvents Developer’s Guide.
Validation shows errors for use of keywords as identifiers:
Reserved keyword, cannot be used as an identifier
To Resolve the Issue  If you use any of the listed words as identifiers, resource names, or folder names, change them in your 5.1 project.
