You can upgrade your existing plug-ins created with the vSphere Web Client SDK 6.0 by applying changes to your existing plug-ins.

You must apply all changes required to upgrade plug-ins created with the vSphere Web Client SDK 6.0 Update 1 before you proceed with the next three changes.

Adapt your plug-ins to the following changes:

■

The error handling mechanisms in the Java controllers. The code using the @ExceptionHandler annotation must be updated to return the correct error map in case of exception. For more information about the returned error response, see the ServicesController.java code sample located at the globalview-html-service\src\main\java\com\vmware\samples\globalview\mvc directory of the Global View sample.

■

The properties of the UserSession object that the WEB_PLATFORM.getUserSession() function returns no longer contain the samlTokenXml property.

■

The WEB_PLATFORM.onGlobalRefreshRequest() function is replaced with the WEB_PLATFORM.setGlobalRefreshHandler(callback) function. This function is called when a global refresh is initiated by the user.
