Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Development:
Progress Dynamics Administration

Progress Dynamics support for cross-version deployments

The Progress Dynamics deployment tools provide the following features to support cross-version deployments between the OpenEdge 10 and Progress Dynamics 2.1 release families:

The export and import functions of the deployment tools recognize deployment datasets (ADOs) from both release families.
The dataset import functions ignore unknown tables (tables in the ADOs that do not exist in the target Repository).
The dataset import functions ignore unknown fields (fields in import tables that do not exist in the same tables of the target Repository).
The dataset import functions ignore unknown data types. That is, if a field in an import table has a data type not supported in the target Repository, the import functions ignore those fields.
