By backing up the database, QuickBuild actually saves contents of the database into a portable XML file, which can be restored to a different database. In this way you are able to migrate data between different databases. For instance, if you want to migrate data from HSQLDB (the default database used by QuickBuild) to MySQL, the following steps can be performed:
Bring up QuickBuild and backup database to an XML file, say
data.xml
.
Shutdown QuickBuild, and edit <QuickBuild
installation directory>/config.properties
to connect
to MySQL.
Bring up QuickBuild again, and restore database from
data.xml
.
