When you create a toolkit dependency and that toolkit is
subsequently updated, the Designer view displays an icon to indicate
that a more recent snapshot of the toolkit is available. You can choose
to upgrade the dependency or to ignore the new version.
About this task
When you update or change the version of a toolkit dependency,
library items from the toolkit that are currently in use are automatically
updated. For example, if a service from the toolkit is the implementation
for an activity and that service changes from one snapshot to the
next, the changes are automatically reflected in your implementation.
The same is true if you change a dependency to an older version of
a toolkit.
Procedure
- Click the icon next to the toolkit, as shown in the following
figure:
- Select one of the following options:
| Option |
Description |
|---|
| Upgrade Dependency to current_snapshot_name |
Select this option to ensure that you have the most recent
version of the library items within the toolkit. |
| Ignore Version current_snapshot_name of
Dependency |
Select this option if you know you do not want to use the updated version of the library
items in this toolkit. Selecting this option will remove the warning icon next to the
toolkit. |
Restriction: You will not see the snapshot listed
in the Change Dependency box, and you will also not see the yellow
warning marker if:
- You have read permissions on for a toolkit.
- The toolkit snapshot has not been released.
What to do next
You can change the version of a toolkit dependency at any time by selecting the toolkit in
the library and choosing
Change Version of Dependency from the pop-up menu.
In the Change Dependency window, select the snapshot that you want.
