IBM Rational Developer manual seems to cover this pretty nicely in the section called, well "Migrating the specification level of Java EE projects" - Web 2.2 to Web 2.5, EJB 1.1 to EJB 3, JCA 1.0 to JCA 1.5... – gnat Apr 18 '12 at 11:12

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

Not necessarily, but you do have to watch out for:

  • Things that were deprecated which get removed
  • Things that have become deprecated (which you should move off)
  • New features which might make your application simpler, faster, more scalable, whatver.
