[Glass] Questions about upgrading from GemStone 3.6.5 to GemStone 3.7.x

[Steven Baker]

Hello,

> Then, to upgrade production extents, we will run the "upgradeImage" script. Should we run the "upgradeSeasideImage" script before loading our code,

This is correct.

> considering that loading our libraries would effectively "downgrade" the Seaside libraries again? 


upgradeSeasideImage doesn't install or upgrade Seaside, it just prepares the image to be able to load Seaside by updating some tooling (Metacello, Monticello, Gofer, and some GemStone/Squeak compatibility bits), and prepares the image so that your Seaside code can be loaded.

This will make your image match the seaside extent that is shipped with 3.7.x, and you can load your Seaside code on top.
