Migration to JET2 Overview
There are three techniques by which you can migrate a DPTK pattern to a JET2 transform:
- Apply the DPTK "DPTK to JET2 Migration Pattern" pattern. This pattern is applied to the project containing the
DPTK pattern and it generates a new project containing a pure JET2 pattern. There are several possible
migration issues to be aware of.
- Apply the DPTK "Add JET Behavior Pattern" pattern. This pattern adds files to the original DPTK pattern project
to turn the project into a plugin project containing a JET transform. The transform settings are initialized
in such a way that the DPTK templates are recognized and treated as JET templates. The pattern project will
now act in a dual mode: it can still be applied as a DPTK pattern and it can be run and deployed as a JET
transform.
The DPTK templates can run unchanged as JET templates because of a tag library, the DPTK compatibility layer,
that presents the same interface and behavior as the original DPTK tags, but which is implemented as a pure
JET tag library. This DPTK compatibility taglib is only available in Rational's RSx V7.
- Rewrite the pattern manually.
