VisualAge Generator to Enterprise Generation Language Migration Guide

Saving your image

The Stage 1 migration tool unloads all applications that contain VAGen parts from your image at the beginning of Stage 1 processing. Only the last migration set to be processed is left in your image when the Stage 1 tool finishes. Unloading all applications ensures that only parts in the migration set are considered for the associate parts list during Stage 1. If you have an image that you wish to save, you should do the following before running the Stage 1 tool:

  1. Shut down VisualAge Generator.
  2. Save backup copies of the following files in your \VisualAgeForSmalltalk-installation-directory\image:

  2. Restore the files you backed up before running the Stage 1 tool.
