Can we provide more guidance on updating Workspace version
Liferay Master Posts: 541 Join Date: 12/1/08 Recent Posts

In the artcie about  Configuring Liferay Workspace there is a section that covers Updating Liferay Workspace and Bundled Plugins.  In step one, we direct users to a list of workspace releases but we provide no guidance on which version they should select. Should they always select the most recent release?  Highest version number?  Does it matter what version of Liferay they are using?

The only thing I can tell you is that plugin versions absolutely matter when it comes to RESTBuilder (and maybe even Service Builder).

I have a blog post up on how to use RESTBuilder, but it really only works if you leverage the version of the plugin that I included in the blog. Older versions don't work, and I'm not sure newer versions would work either.

If the change of the plugin version requires me to update any of my code, then yes immediately plugin version becomes important.
