Widgets, built-in dashboards, and other DTP assets may be deprecated or changed to meet the ever-evolving challenges of software development. Some deprecated assets and functionality may still be available to accommodate organizations that depend on them. This chapter describes how to deploy legacy assets that may still be available.
Legacy Assets Removed in 5.4
Project Center is deprecated in DTP 5.4. As a result, all assets associated with Project Center, including the following widgets were removed from the legacy assets archive:
- Iteration Burndown
- Requirements Burndown
- Tasks
Assets Deprecated in 5.3.3
The following assets are no longer available in DTP 5.3.3 by default:
| Build widgets |
|
|---|---|
| Code widgets |
|
| Compliance widgets |
|
| Defects widgets |
|
| Project Center widgets |
|
| Static Analysis (9.x) widgets |
|
| Tests (9.x) widgets |
|
| Dashboard templates |
|
| Compliance rule map |
|
Each asset is defined in one JSON or XML file.
You can deploy the assets into your DTP installation directory by expanding the the legacy.zip archive into the root directory or you DTP installation. The archive is in the <DTP_INSTALL> directory.
Deploying the Assets in Windows
Be sure to extract the legacy assets to the <DTP_INSTALL> root directory. By default, the application built into Windows attempts to create a <DTP_INSTALL>/legacy directory, which will result in an error.
Confirm that you want to run the extraction as an administrator if prompted.
Restart DTP if using the legacy MISRA compliance artifacts
Restart DTP after deploying from legacy.zip if you want to use MISRA compliance category.
Deploying the Assets in Linux
- Open the Linux console and navigate to the <DTP_INSTALL> directory.
- Run the following command:
unzip legacy.zip
The asset files will be extracted to the correct location.
