What do I need to read?
What do I need to read?
- The first is the “New Features” section, this lists what has been added and provides links to the new sections in the documentation.
- The second is the “Upgrade Guide”, this lists what has been changed or removed. It will explain any code or configuration changes you may need to apply.
You should also make sure you read the different sets of documentation for the product(s) you use. Remember there are separate sets of documentation for Genero Desktop Client, Genero Application Server, Genero Mobile, Genero Studio etc.
Also be aware that the documentation is under EAP too. Please give any feedback on it, and please be tolerant if there are mistakes or omissions.

If you post any issues, please remember to include O/S and version information, and provide steps necessary for the developers to reproduce the issue. This normally means creating a small example, or explaining how to reproduce using the demo programs in FGLDIR/demo, or attaching a log file. It is also a good idea to check through your archive of these mails to make sure it has not been reported already.

EAP Mailing List Etiquette
EAP Mailing List Etiquette
This is the time for suggestions to improvements to features that are being added, not the time for suggestions for completely new features. The best time to suggest completely new features is just after a new version is released. This doesn’t mean you can’t ask for new features, I am just fore-warning you that it is unlikely to be included in this release.
If you think someone has a good point, please support him or her, even if your mail simply says “+1”. It is important for us to know that someone is not a minority of one.

What do I need to do?
Once registered, as a minimum we suggest you do the following …
- Read the new features and upgrade guides for the products you use
- Get in the habit of reading this mailing list daily.
- Install the EAP version
- Compile your sources using this new version (modify your sources if required)
- Run your basic smoke tests using this new version
… This will help ensure your app will at least continue to run using the new version.
We would also like you to look at the new features and to try and use them to improve your existing sources and application. We suggest you create prototypes of these new features and how they could be applied to your code base.
My Application does not compile, my program does not work as it did. What should I do ...
- Read the upgrade guide to see if there are any reasons why it might be failing.
- Look at the issue tracker to see if there are any issues related
- Search the previous entries in the mailing list to see if anyone else has reported similar issue
- Report the issue to the mailing list.
- Just be aware that there maybe a valid reason for your program to not compile or not work.

You run the risk that when you come to use a new feature, it will not quite meet your needs.
Once a version is released and made generally available, we are limited in what changes we can make. We are limited to bug fixes; our standard is any future maintenance release should be able to be installed without requiring any code changes, or recompilation.

Any Tips or Tricks?
Use environment variables and port numbers to keep the EAP version and your compiled objects (42m, 42r, 42f etc) separate from your production version and production-compiled objects
