We have a separate Eclipse project which contains ONLY the resources we
ever touched. But even like this no one of the procedures seems easy for
the moment

Given the amount of changes required to back port you're probably better to
upgrade to a newer revision, depending on how you've handled your custom code
and what tests you have in place to verify your main areas of functionality, it
should be relatively straightforward.

Hello all,
We started to develop an e-commerce application based on Ofbiz framework around
2 years ago.
The version we started from is a revision 691692.
Main problem is that we already have few systems launched into production,
based on that revision.
Meanwhile, doing some mass tests, we encountered a lot of problems - mostly
related to transactions...
We noticed the implementation of
/framework/entity/src/org/ofbiz/entity/transaction/TransactionUtil.java has
lots of problems from this point of view - maybe not thread safe.
We just checked out today revision 902810 and it seems someone really improved
a lot that source code from threads-safe point of view.
Trying to upgrade only that class into our old version drove to upgrade for
more and more classes. We encountered lots of incompatibilities - the source
code has been in some places fully changed. Right now, having more than 800
compilation errors I would not feel too optimist to integrate only what I need
from the newer version into the old one.
On the other hand, trying to get 902810 and then put over our work might also
cause same problems because the entity layer and conditions handling seems to
be changed.. I even expect to be worse that way because maybe web templates are
also changed.
Which way could someone suggest to proceed for a better version where all
database/entity layer/transaction later problems are fixed?
Many thanks,
Flopa
