To all,
How do I bring existing Projects into a WMB 7.0 and WMB 8.0 Workspace?
I have existing Projects that I've built in a different WMB 7.0 Service Workspace and want to bring them into the new 7.0 Service Workspace without Export | Import or PIF's.
The Toolkit is not intuitive in this regard.
I just want to Add existing Projects to the current Workspace.
We don't have Version Control to share Projects in the Proof of Concept Environment.
Thanks,
Eric |

File/import/existing project ...
Point to the location of your existing project's .project file, decide whether you want to copy into your workspace or not, that's about it.
In v8 you'll get a Message Broker Project under Independant Resources.
No PIF required. |

Your advice does not line up with the InfoCentre:

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 WebSphere Message Broker Version 8.0. You can import these resources by migrating your WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit workspace, or by using a Project Interchange file. Message flow projects have been replaced by Message Broker projects in Version 8.0. When you import message flow projects into Version 8.0, they are migrated to Message Broker projects. You can then use an imported project as the basis for a new application or library.
To import resources into Version 8.0 using a project interchange file, complete the following steps.
In a previous version of WebSphere Message Broker, export the resources that you want to use in Version 8.0.
Click File > Export. The Export wizard opens.
Expand Other, click Project Interchange, then click Next.
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.
Click Finish. The Project Interchange file is created in the specified location.
Create a WebSphere Message Broker Version 8.0 workspace, or open an existing one.
Import the Project Interchange file into the Version 8.0 workspace.
Click File > Import. The Import wizard opens.
Expand Other, click Project Interchange, then click Next.
Specify the location of the Project Interchange file that you created in step 1.
Specify the location of the open Version 8.0 workspace.
Select the projects that you want to import into your Version 8.0 workspace, then click Finish.
If you are importing message flow projects into Version 8.0, they are migrated to Message Broker projects. You can then choose to convert the projects to applications or libraries.
For more information about this migration, see Migrating the WebSphere Message Broker Toolkit development resources to Version 8.0.
Next: After you have imported a project, you can use it as the basis for a new application or library by following the instructions in Converting a project to an application or library. |
If you attend the WMB Developer's class, this topic is covered in-depth.

I've done some of that manually. Let me try the PIF approach.
Thanks |

Whatever you did manually is probably not the best approach. Your skipping important steps that the import wizard does for you, like migrating the project files into the new WMB8 format.

I mean I have succesfully used the Export | Import process to migrate services from v6 to v7 to v8.
Right now I'm trying to reuse Projects that I've previously upgraded from earlier versions. |

There are very nice public domain alternatives for source control. Just because you are in a POC environment does not mean you should skip version control process.
