Importing resources from previous versions

You can work with resources from previous versions of WebSphere® Message Broker by using a project interchange file to import the resources into IBM® Integration Bus Version 9.0.

You might have resources from previous versions of WebSphere Message Broker, such as Message Flow projects, Java™ projects, message set projects, and PHP projects, that you want to use in IBM Integration Bus Version 9.0. You can import these resources by migrating your WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit workspace, or by using a project interchange file.

Message flow projects are replaced by Message Broker projects in WebSphere Message Broker Version 8.0. Message Broker projects are replaced by integration projects in IBM Integration Bus Version 9.0. When you import Message Flow projects or Message Broker projects into IBM Integration Toolkit Version 9.0, they are converted automatically to integration projects. You can then use an imported project as the basis for a new application or library.

To import resources into IBM Integration Bus Version 9.0 by using a project interchange file, complete the following steps.

In the previous version of WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit, export the resources that you want to use in IBM Integration Toolkit Version 9.0.
1. Click File > Export. The Export wizard opens.
2. Expand Other, click Project Interchange, then click Next.
3. Select the projects that you want to export, and specify the location for the compressed file that is created. You can save the file to a folder on your file system, or to a disk drive.
4. Click Finish. The project interchange file is created in the specified location.
Create an IBM Integration Toolkit Version 9.0 workspace, or open an existing one.
Import the project interchange file into the Version 9.0 workspace.
1. Click File > Import. The Import wizard opens.
2. Expand Other, click Project Interchange, then click Next.
3. Specify the location of the project interchange file that you created in step 1.
4. Specify the location of the open Version 9.0 workspace.
5. Select the projects that you want to import into your Version 9.0 workspace, then click Finish.

If you are importing Message Flow projects or Message Broker projects into IBM Integration Toolkit Version 9.0, they are converted automatically to integration projects.

Next:

You can choose to convert the imported projects to applications or libraries. For an example of how you might convert your resources, see Example: Manual conversion of Version 7.0 resources to applications and libraries. For detailed instructions for how to convert your resources, see Converting existing projects to applications and libraries.
