4.3.1.1
Activity Editor: 
In the WBI Express for Item Sync release, the WBI ICS system is shipped with the Item Sync solution.  Some customer found that they need to customize the shipped Item Sync solution for it to fix their needs.  However, since Java code editing is not allowed in this release, customer is not able to modify mapping Java code for their needs.  This fix will enable the Java editing functionality  in Activity Editor so that users can directly customize the Java code for mapping requirements.

UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS 

Before applying this patch, it is highly recommended that  you backup the %CROSSWORLDS%/bin folder (e.g.  C:\IBM\WebSphereICS\bin).  In the case you want to uninstall the patch, replace this folder with the backup.

To perform an upgrade to this version of the WBI Express for Item Sync, please follow instructions in the correct order as follows:

  1. Install WBI Express for Item Sync base version 4.3.1.0 or 4.3.0.0 if it has not been installed yet.
  2. Run the attached exe file (e.g. 4311_ExpressforItemSync_patch.exe).   Please notice that in the second step of the installing wizard, by default the installer enters the value of variable %CROSSWORLDS% as an installing directory name.  If you installed WBI Express for Item Sync at another location, use the Browse button to select the correct location.  The installer will do all installing work for you. 
Note that the path name "C:\IBM\WebSphereICS" assumes that IBM WebSphere Business Integration Express for Item Sync has been installed under an IBM WebSphere InterChange Server directory on the C drive.
