| Typically, all that is required to upgrade any NEF-based application is to get a copy of the new JAR files and drop them into the APP_ROOT/WEB-INF/lib directory for the application. Because Sparx uses web resources such as JavaScript (.js), graphics (.gif, .jpg, etc), and templates (.jsp, .html, etc.) you will need to run one extra step which will extract web resources from the Sparx JAR file and make them available to your application server.
Not sure what version you're running? If you're not sure what versions of the Frameworks are in use within your applications, simply go to your application's Console ( http://server/yourapp/console ) Home page and review the contents of "Versions" panel in the bottom left portion of the page.
Need to rollback to an earlier version? Visit the Downloads page to pick any previous release.
Upgrading to Commons 7.1.3
- Download the latest version.
- Save the file as netspective-commons.jar (no version number) into your APP_ROOT/WEB-INF/lib directory if it's a web application or into your CLASSPATH for other application types.
- Restart your application.
Upgrading to Axiom 7.1.3
- Download the latest version.
- Save the file as netspective-axiom.jar (no version number) into your APP_ROOT/WEB-INF/lib directory if it's a web application or into your CLASSPATH for other application types.
- Restart your application.
Upgrading to Sparx 7.1.4
- Download the latest version.
- Save the file as netspective-sparx.jar (no version number) into your APP_ROOT/WEB-INF/lib directory.
- Restart your application.
- Go to your application's Console ( http://server/yourapp/console ).
- Click the Project Tab.
- Click the Ant Build Tab under the Project Tab.
- Click the NEFS/Sparx Tab on the left side.
- Choose the install-sparx-resources-into-app target to execute.
- Click OK to have the Sparx resources that are stored in the netspective-sparx-7.1.4.jar copied into your APP_ROOT/sparx directory.
Note : The APP_ROOT/sparx directory is a private Sparx directory and you should not alter the contents of that directory because when you upgrade Sparx in the future they will be overwritten. If you need to override Sparx files, simply place them in your APP_ROOT/resources/sparx folder because the contents of that folder are checked before APP_ROOT/sparx . As long as the filename and relative structure are consistent you can override any Sparx resource with your own. |
