Copy the Applications from the OpenROAD 2006 (5.0) Environment to the 5.1 Environment
We recommend the following steps to migration each OpenROAD 2006 (5.0) application to OpenROAD 5.1.
1. In the OpenROAD 2006 (5.0) development environment, export the application using the exportapp utility from the OpenROAD 2006 (5.0) source code repository.
For more information about the exportapp and importapp utilities, see "How You Can Import and Export Applications and Components" in the Workbench User Guide.
2. In your 5.1 development environment, import the application into your 5.1 source code repository using the importapp utility.
3. Export the application just imported from the 5.1 source code repository, and re-import it into the same database using the –nreplace flag to overwrite what is already there.
This re-export/re-import step is only a precaution. When an OpenROAD 2006 (5.0) application is imported into 5.1, OpenROAD takes a number of extra steps to materialize the new attributes and other elements that have been added to the product. The second re-import will traverse the purely 5.1 import path, ensuring that your application has been exposed to the full range of import processing before you start editing it.
4. Compile all the components in the application using the 5.1 development environment.
