SPADS update procedure for new Spring version

This document describes how to update SPADS to use a new Spring version.

You need to replace <spadsRelease> by your actual SPADS release (stable, testing, unstable or contrib), and <springMajorVersion> by your actual Spring major version number (for example "95") in the commands listed below.

Linux

• update the "springServer" and "springDataDir" paths in spads.conf for new Spring version if needed
• update your SPADS installer script so that it contains the latest changes which could be required to recompile the unitsync interface from latest Spring sources:

   ./update.pl <spadsRelease> -a

• launch the PerlUnitSync module generation:

   ./spadsInstaller.pl -g
