Your source code changes and your data changes must be
synchronized. This might sound obvious, but order your worktasks
for the most efficiency while making this happen:
- If you need conversion and bridge programs, they need to
be finished and tested before code modifications are made
to their specifications.
- If you have archive data that cannot be changed due to
legal or other constraints, you have to either keep old
programs alive to access them or include with your code
modifications switches for dual code - to access both the
old, unchanged data and the converted data.
We covered the purpose of bridges and their attribute in
Specify partition bridges. Be sure your specifications are
still appropriate.
