<h3><A NAME="migover356eval"></A>API and Specifications for version 3.5.x</h3>
<p>If your existing applications currently support different specification levels than are supported by this version of the product, it is likely you must update at least some aspects of the applications to comply with the new specifications.</p>
<p>In many cases, IBM provides additional features and customization options that extend the specification level even further. If your existing applications use IBM extensions from earlier product versions, it might be necessary for you to perform mandatory or optional migration
to use the same kinds of extensions in WebSphere Application Server - Express. </p>
<p>From Version 3.5.x to WebSphere Application Server - Express, main migration areas concern IBM entensions and migrating the Java specifications to Java 2.</p>
<p>The following table summarizes potential migration areas due to changes in supported specifications:</p>
