Overview
This guide is to upgrade the PT Comments v2.2 from v2.1. If you are updating from a version earlier than v2.1, please follow the Version 2.1 Upgrade Guide before upgrading to v2.2.
ADF Application Code Review
This is only for reviewing the code that is in the "/ADF/apps/" directory, not at the site level.
- Download the application from the Community project page.
- Unzip the application zip folder.
- Analyze the updated app code compared to the current app code on your server.
- Identify any customizations that you have made to the application code to make sure these are not overwritten by the app update.
- A great tool to use is Beyond Compare to compare the new and current file to identify the exact lines of code that have been changed.
- Once this is complete, then move your app customizations into the new app code package.
Application Code
- Rename directory "/ADF/apps/pt_comments" to "/ADF/apps/pt_comments_v2.1".
- Rename file "/ADF/apps/pt_comments_v2.1/appBeanConfig.cfm" to "/ADF/apps/pt_comments_v2.1/appBeanConfig.cfm.old".
- Move the PT Comments v2.2 and into the "/ADF/apps/pt_comments/" directory.
- Reset the ADF
Site Level Customizations Review
This is only for reviewing the site level customizations in the "/_cs_apps/pt_comments/" directory, not in the ADF directory.
- Analyze the updated app code compared to the app customization code on your server.
- Identify any customizations that you have made to the application code to make sure these are updated with any functionality.
- Again, Beyond Compare is a good tool to compare the new and current file to identify the exact lines of code that have been changed.
- This is important for components that have customized functions to the site level "/_cs_apps/". The best practice is to identify the function that have been customized and compare with the new app function to identify any updates. A good help is to check the function comment header to see if any updates have been made.
- Once completed, Reset the ADF.
