How to support both RTC 2.0 and RTC 3.0
I write a program to retrieve workitems from RTC, but I need to support both RTC2.0 and RTC3.0, if I use RTCSDK2, it can not connect to RTC3.0 system. If I use RTCSDK3, it can no connect to RTC2.x system.
Is there any method to support both of them? Thanks a lot! |

RTC 2.x and RTC 3.x is a special case, because there was no N-1 compatibility (see http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2013/07/09/new-version-and-now-experiences-with-sdk-and-plain-java-api-across-tool-versions/ for what that is) in RTC 3.x.
So you would run your Plain Java Client Library programs with a classpath to the 2.x version Plain Java Client Library if you want to talk to 2.x and with a classpath to the 3.x version if you want to talk to 3.x http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2013/07/12/work-item-command-line-client-to-add-a-comment/ and http://rsjazz.wordpress.com/2013/03/20/understanding-and-using-the-rtc-java-client-api/ show how to call the code. Unless you are in the unlucky situation where the API is gone in 3.x, this should in general work. |
Hello Yun,
Unfortunately RTC SDK is not backward compatible yet. Anyway it should be more stable and do not change so much since version 3.0. Best regards, Krzysztof Kazmierczyk. |
