v9.0 Migration Guide

The following guide can be used to help migrate your code to v9.0. Note that you can also refer to the Release Notes for changes as well.

Old	New
@RestMethod annotation.	Has been replaced with RestOp, RestGet, RestPut, RestPost, RestDelete, RestOptions
@RemoteMethod annotation.	Has been replaced with RemoteOp, RemoteGet, RemotePut, RemotePost, RemoteDelete.
BasicRestServletJena, BasicRestServletJenaGroup classes.	These have been removed in 9.0 due to the removal of the Jena packages (due to security issues). Replace with BasicRestServlet and BasicRestServletGroup.
@Body annotation.	Has been renamed to @Content (to better match HTTP naming conventions such as Content-Type/Content-Encoding headers).
@Query(_default), @FormData(_default).	Has been renamed to Query.def / FormData.def. Note however that @RestOp-annotated parameters now also support use of Optional parameters which simplifies the coding of default values.
@Rest(reqHeaders).	Has been renamed to Rest.defaultRequestHeaders and added Rest.defaultResponseHeaders.
@Rest(staticFiles).	Changed from a string array to a Class<? extends StaticFiles>. If you're extending from BasicRestServlet/BasicRestResource, the getHtdoc() is already implemented for you (via the mixed-in HtdocMixin) to provide static files under the sub-URI /htdocs/. The newer StaticFilesMixin shares the same resolution logic under a configurable prefix (default /static/). The default implementation for finding static files is BasicStaticFiles which provides basic out-of-the-box functionality, so you can usually just remove the previous @Rest(staticFiles) value.
