# Migrating from v0.5.x to v0.6.0

This section describes how to upgrade from v0.5.x to v0.6.0 of the RTIC framework.

## `Cargo.toml` - version bump

Change the version of `cortex-m-rtic` to `"0.6.0"`.

## Module instead of Const

With the support of attributes on modules the `const APP` workaround is not needed.

Change

``` rust
#[rtic::app(/* .. */)]
const APP: () = {
  [code here]
};
```

into

``` rust
#[rtic::app(/* .. */)]
mod app {
  [code here]
}
```

Now that a regular Rust module is used it means it is possible to have custom
user code within that module.
Additionally, it means that `use`-statements for resources etc may be required.

## Init always returns late resources

In order to make the API more symmetric the #[init]-task always returns a late resource.

From this:

``` rust
#[rtic::app(device = lm3s6965)]
mod app {
    #[init]
    fn init(_: init::Context) {
        rtic::pend(Interrupt::UART0);
    }
    [more code]
}
```

to this:

``` rust
#[rtic::app(device = lm3s6965)]
mod app {
    #[init]
    fn init(_: init::Context) -> init::LateResources {
        rtic::pend(Interrupt::UART0);

        init::LateResources {}
    }
    [more code]
}
```

## Resources struct - #[resources]

Previously the RTIC resources had to be in in a struct named exactly "Resources":

``` rust
struct Resources {
    // Resources defined in here
}
```

With RTIC v0.6.0 the resources struct is annotated similarly like
`#[task]`, `#[init]`, `#[idle]`: with an attribute `#[resources]`

``` rust
#[resources]
struct Resources {
    // Resources defined in here
}
```

In fact, the name of the struct is now up to the developer:

``` rust
#[resources]
struct whateveryouwant {
    // Resources defined in here
}
```

would work equally well.
