| ==Finishing an Upgrade== | | ==Functional Changes== |
| <blockquote> | | <blockquote> |
| ====Reallocate Application Resources and Republish Packages==== | | ===item=== |
| In version 9.0, new application resources ([[Objects]], [[Web Tabs]], [[Classes]], [[Pages]], [[Static Resources]], [[Sites]], and [[Components]]) are always created as part of the current application, and are not automatically available to all applications running in the current tenancy. That arrangement achieves a desirable separation that simplifies application development.
| | :description |
| | | :''Learn more:'' xx |
| In order to assure backward compatibility, however, the upgrade process from version 8.2 to version 9.0 makes sure that all such resources are made available to every application in the tenancy. That allocation ensured that no applications were broken by the upgrade.
| |
| | |
| But as a side effect, applications published as packages now contain every resource in the tenancy--not just the resources that the application previously included in the package.
| |
| | |
| To reallocate those resources:
| |
| # Go to '''[[File:GearIcon.png]] > Setup > Global Resources > Resource Sharing'''
| |
| # Click '''[Edit]'''
| |
| # Select each application that will be published as a package
| |
| # For each application, go through the list of resources.
| |
| # For each resource that is ''not'' supposed to be part of the application package, move the resource from the '''Selected''' list back to the '''Available''' list.
| |
| # You can now republish the package.<br>(Republishing is necessary. Older packages do not work with the new version of the platform.)
| |
| | |
| {{Important|All published packages that will be used for installations need to be re-published after the upgrade. }}
| |
| | |
| ====Update Dependent Utilities====
| |
| :After an [[Installing and Upgrading the Application Server#Upgrades|Upgrade]], it is strongly recommended that you update the JDK and MySQL to these minimum levels:
| |
| ::* JDK 7.0, release _06 or higher
| |
| ::* MySQL 5.5
| |
| :(The platform can be upgraded without updating these utilities, but it has been fully tested with them, both for functionality and for optimum performance.)
| |
| | |
| ====Install Open Office====
| |
| : OpenOffice is now used to generate compound PDF documents from the new Word and PowerPoint [[Document Templates#Document Template Formats|Document Template Formats]].
| |
| : Before users work with that feature, therefore, OpenOffice needs to be installed and launched at system startup. | |

| ==Notable Changes==
| |
| | |
| ===Functional Changes===
| |
| <blockquote>
| |
| ====Support for Report Subqueries====
| |
| :A new tenant-management capability has been added, to allow for [[Subquery Filters]] in Views and Reports.
| |
| :This functionality is resource-intensive, and should not be granted indiscriminately.
| |
| | |
| ====Packaging Restrictions Removed====
| |
| :Restrictions on the packaging process have been removed, in order to simplify development efforts:
| |
| ::* Items in a subscribed package, as well as the package itself, can now be republished by any tenant who has package publishing privileges.
| |
| ::* In addition, any tenant with the capability to create a package can include system objects, so [[Tenant Capabilities]] no longer includes the ''Package System-Generated Objects'' option.
| |
| | |
| ===="Development Tenancy" Capability Replaced by Sandboxes====
| |
| :The [[Service Provider Settings]] no longer contain a ''Development Tenancy'' option. Instead, [[Sandboxes]] should be used for development, now that packaging restrictions have been removed.
