3.3.5: Migrating to supported user profile APIs
Migrating from Version 3.x
Changes to code are not required.
Migrating from Version 2.0x
The user profile implementation
in versions 3.x and later
differs significantly from that in Version 2.0,
as follows:
- Profile management functions
-
The user profile management
functions are separated from the data elements (the elements mapped
to the columns in the database schema).
The management functions in the com.ibm.websphere.userprofile.UserProfile
class are deprecated and disabled. The class is to be used solely for
getting and setting data for individual instances of users.
- Extending the base implementation
-
You can now extend the base user profile implementation to include custom database
columns and import legacy databases.
