1. Wobject Migration
--------------------
1.1 Nothing Yet
1.1 Global Unique Wobject IDs
There have currently been no changes to the Wobject API.
In 6.2 we changed wobjects to use the new Global Unique ID system. See WebGUI::Id for
details. This change means that wobject Ids are now 22 character text strings rather
than integers. That means you'll need to update your database tables and code to account
for the Ids being strings. Also, anything using the setCollateral method will start using
GUIDs as well.

do HTTP redirects and set cookies via session. Take a look at WebGUI::HTTP for
details.
5.9 Global Unique IDs
In 6.2 we added global unique Ids to WebGUI. This means that a lot of the integer-
based incrementer IDs will now be replaced with 22 character text IDs. You should
update your code and database tables to take advantage of this. Some of the more
important ID's that have been changed are User Ids, Group Ids, and Wobject Ids.
See WebGUI::Id for more information.
