Migrating ArcSDE Java apps from 9.3 to 10.2

[juliorincon]

It's been a while since I worked with ArcGis, can anyone provide some directions for upgrading application using ArcSDE java client 9.3 to 10.2?

Our application use the ArcSDE java libraries quite extensively, and we are planning on upgrading the ArcGIS server /SDE to 10.2, so I'd like to know if there's any relevant migration documentation.

Also, where can I get the Java libraries for ArcSDE 10.2?

According to current ESRI documentation it seems the ArcGIS Runtime SDK is the recommended library for building applications. I'd like to know if this SDK will provide all the functionalities provided by ArcSDE.

Thanks

Hi Julio.

Thank you for asking this great question.

Here is a great discussion forum for good questions like this: ArcObjects SDK ,

The ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Java API is not the best choice for Client-Server, direct ArcSDE Java apps like the one you describe. ArcObjects is your best choice here. Having said that, Runtime is the best choice for Java apps that take full advantage of the modern ArcGIS Platform as a whole, which is the current and future.

To inquire about the SDE Java libraries for 10.2, you should contact you local account representative or Esri Customer Service.

I hope this is helpful?
