Upgrading Vaadin version in Eclipse

Vaadin 6 / 7 / 8
1

Perhaps something has changed, or maybe I just don’t know what I’m doing :slight_smile:

I have Vaadin 7.1.6 running in Eclipse (Kepler). I see that Vaadin 7.1.9 is available, but when I select
→ Properties → Vaadin

I get a window showing 7.1.6 as the current version, but that entry is grayed out - I can’t ask it to upgrade to 7.1.9.

What is the proper way to do that upgrade? I can download the 7.1.9 zip file, but where do I extract it, and how do I tell my projects to use it?

thanks,

nbc

You can change the Vaadin version number at the top of the ivy.xml file in the project (or in your pom.xml if it is a Maven project rather than an Ivy project). Both of these automatically load the required files using the dependency management system.
