The JavaServer Faces and Faces Client runtime resources that originally
shipped in Rational® Application
Developer V6.0 have been updated for Rational Application Developer V6.0.1.
If you want to continue development on portlet projects that were created
with this previous product version, it is recommended that you update the
Faces and Faces Client runtime resources to the latest levels.
In Rational Application
Developer V6.0.1, the Faces and Faces Client runtime resource updates happen
automatically when a portlet project is imported or a workspace is opened
that contains out-of-date Faces or Faces Client runtime resources. After importing
a portlet project or opening a workspace from Rational Application Developer V6.0
to Rational Application
Developer V6.0.1, you will be prompted to update these runtime resources to
the latest levels.
Automatically updating runtime resources
To
update the Faces and Faces Client runtime resources
automatically for
a portlet project:
- Import a portlet project (or a workspace) containing Faces or Faces Client
content from Rational Application
Developer V6.0. The Project Migration window opens.
Note: If the Project Migration
window does not open, your automatic build preference setting is probably
disabled. In Project Explorer, right-click your portlet project and select ;
the process of rebuilding a project opens the Project Migration window.
- If you have other portlet projects with Faces or Faces Client content
in your workspace, check Apply this choice to any other projects
that need to be upgraded and all your portlet projects will be
updated.
- Click one of the following:
- Yes to complete the update automatically.
- Later to defer the update. To update runtime resources
automatically after selecting Later, you have to close and reopen the
portlet project or restart the workbench before rebuilding your portlet project.
If you have disabled automatic builds, right-click your portlet project and
select Build Project.
- Never to keep your runtime resources back-level.
If you choose Never and intentionally stay with the
back-level runtime resources, you will not be prompted again to update them.
In the future, you will need to update the runtime resources manually if you
require them.
- To update the portlet-specific Faces runtime resources, jsf-portlet.jar
and jsf-wp.jar, you need to follow the manual update steps below.
