Changed Features for 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)

11g Release 1 (11.1.1) includes the following changes:

• Oracle WebCenter Content directories and files: WebCenter Content 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) is provided as part of a full media installation of Oracle WebCenter Content, with the WebCenter Content directories and files. The directory structure for a WebCenter Content 11g instance is different from an Oracle Universal Content Management 10g instance. For a description of terms and path names that are important for understanding and working with the WebCenter Content structure, see Section 1.1.1.1, "Terminology for WebCenter Content Directories."

• SOAP: SOAP is provided with Oracle WebLogic Server, not in Oracle WebCenter Content.

• Web Form Editor: The Web Form Editor user interface and FCKEditor are not supported.

• CIS deprecated: Content Integration Suite (CIS) has been deprecated. Developers and system integrators are directed to use Remote Intradoc Client (RIDC), which provides a thin communication API for communication with Oracle WebCenter Content Server. For details, see the Oracle WebCenter Content Remote Intradoc Client (RIDC) Java API Reference. For more information, see Section 23, "Using RIDC to Access Content Server."

• Oracle Enterprise Content Management Suite (Oracle ECM) is now part of the Oracle WebCenter product stack to provide the most complete, open, and unified enterprise content management platform. The Oracle WebCenter Content Server software and documentation have been rebranded accordingly.
