Before you migrate your application by using the migration
tool, you must do the following things:
- Package the server side application into jar files.
- Copy the jar files into the migration tool plug-in directory under
runtime folder.
- Modify plug-in.xml to include the jars as the runtime library. For example:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<plugin
id="com.ibm.btt.tools.migration"
name="BTT Migration Tool Plug-in"
version="1.0.0"
provider-name="IBM"
class="com.ibm.btt.tools.migration.BTTMigrationPlugin">
<runtime>
<library name="bttmigration.jar">
<export name="*"/>
</library>
<library name="runtime/bttstrutstool.jar"/>
<library name="runtime/dseb.jar"/>
<library name="runtime/dseflp.jar"/>
:
:
<library name="runtime/yourapp1.jar"/>
<library name="runtime/yourapp2.jar"/>
</runtime>
These steps are necessary for the migration because the migration
tool must use the jar files to initialize BTT environment and read the related
information about your application.
