Greg Brown reassigned PIVOT-643:
--------------------------------
Assignee: Greg Brown
> Create one or more upgrade guides to help users transition between Pivot
> releases
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PIVOT-643
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-643
> Project: Pivot
> Issue Type: Task
> Environment: n/a
> Reporter: Chris Bartlett
> Assignee: Greg Brown
> Fix For: 2.0
>
>
> I view a 1.5.1 to 2.0 guide as a necessity, but we could also have a 1.5 to
> 1.5.1 one.
> The guides might take the form of a publicly editable section on the wiki, or
> a more static guide on http://pivot.apache.org (hopefully updated if more
> issues come to light)
> One way of addressing this would be to take the example, demo & tutorial
> source from the prior release (1.5.x) and attempt to build it against the new
> release (2.0). This would hopefully uncover most of the issues that users
> might face due to changes between the versions.
> Where possible, each 'issue' would be documented with a description of how it
> manifests (compilation error, runtime exception, silent), how to fix and
> other related issues.
> We can also suggest an ordered series of steps to be followed in order to try
> to reduce the potential volume of requests on the user mailing list. (Run
> the wtkx -> bxml sconversion script, address issue x before issue y, then a,
> b & c ...)
> For skin styles, creation of a simple table of what has been renamed, removed
> & added in this release might suffice, with a note if the functionality has
> changed.
