Migration question |
Mon, Feb 23 2009 10:27 PM | Permanent Link |
Mark Gibson | Hi Folks,
I have an old app that I'm updating at the moment. It currently uses dbisamV3 and I eventually want it to use ElevateDB. What is my best migration path? Straight from one to the other or should I do an interim migration to dbisamV4? Thanks in advance, Mark |

I'd go V3 to ElevateDB. The distance between V3 and ElevateDB is little more than the distance of V4 to ElevateDB (as I recall it one of the main issues going from V3 to V4 was double quotes v single quotes in sql). Whichever you do allow plenty of time and have a brickwall handy. Its useful as you cope with the differences - sometimes its far more pleasant banging your head against it Roy Lambert |

Converting a DBISAM 3.x application to ElevateDB is actually a bit easier than converting a DBISAM 4.x application to ElevateDB. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
