VisualAge Generator to Enterprise Generation Language Migration Guide

Running Stage 2 from the user interface

The wizard described in Setting up the Stage 2 VAGen migration file provides the option to save your preferences in a .vgmig file. If you select the Migrate now box in the wizard, then Stage 2 migration starts when you click the Finish button in the wizard. If you did not select the Migrate now box in the wizard, when you are ready to run Stage 2 migration using your saved .vgmig file, do the following:

  1. From the EGL perspective's Navigator pane, expand the project containing the Stage 2 preferences file by right-clicking on the + symbol next to the project name.
  2. Right click on the preferences file to get the context menu.
  3. Click on Start Migration.

Stage 2 migration starts and converts the External Source Format for your specified migration sets to EGL source and stores the EGL source in the migration database. If you selected either Import into workspace or Save migrated files to temporary directory, Stage 3 automatically starts after Stage 2 completes. After Stage 3, the migration tool automatically starts a refresh of the workspace. The refresh step can take some time, particularly if there is a large number of parts. When the refresh step is complete, a pop-up window appears telling you that migration is complete. Be sure to wait for the pop-up window.

When migration and the refresh step are complete, the following outputs will be available:
