Migration Guide

Preliminary steps

Before you run the importer utility, complete the following steps:

  1. Ensure that your existing library has at least 200 megabytes of free space. If your library does not have at least 200 megabytes of free space, follow the steps in Moving your applications to the new library.
  2. Back up your existing library. It is also a good idea to version and release open editions of code you will want to use in Version 5.5 and to save to files any text from workspaces or the Transcript window that you want to keep.
  3. Install the VisualAge Smalltalk Enterprise Version 5.5 base product and any features that you will need.
Note:This tool migrates the new code from a Version 5.5 library to your existing Version 5.0 or earlier library. This allows you to update your existing code to work in a Version 5.5 environment.
