Hi,
Searched for answers to what must be a common question, but never found a definitive, concise answer.
I have a HANA db on revision 97. When running a UI5 application bootstrapped to, and served from the HANA XS, I check the SAPUI5 component version in 1 of two ways:
- Ctrl-shift-alt-p in the browser window
- In Chrome console, typing sap.ui.version
The UI5 component version that comes with our HANA db 97 revision is 1.24.5. I would like to update this to 1.28.11 to access some new control features.
Are all UI5 controls backwards compatible, so that for example XS applications like lifecycle manage and xs admin are not at risk of impact by the UI upgrade?
Would the following process be correct to update UI5 controls Thomas Jung ?
- Download latest UI controls from smp - SAPUI5_1 ?
- Import the tgz file delivery unit via HANA Studio or lifecycle manager.
- Confirm installed UI5 component version
I imagine it is not unknown for HANA customers to do this?
