[adrianzuo]

All

   Out product is running based on the Jboss 4.2.2, now we are plan to port it to the Jboss 7.0.1. So can anyone give me some guidline to finish the work? Many thanks in advance!

Hi,

I think these docs are a good place to start:

https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/How+do+I+migrate+my+application+from+AS5+or+AS6+to+AS7

https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/AS7/Example+Applications

Thanks for your reply!

Can you give me a ear file sample to me for reference which can run successfully under Jboss AS 7?

Regards,

Adrian

Hi Adrian,

you can build this project which will produce and ear but it is build as a step-by-step tutorial for some of the issues that you might see when migrating to AS7 from a previous version. But if you just follow the steps you'll have an ear that deploys to AS7. Perhaps you can use this as a starting point.

Regards,
