upgrading codeblocks

(1/1)

karan173:
I wish to upgrade C::B from 10.05 to the newer version. Should i just install the new codeblocks to the existing C::B directory to preserve my old settings or is there some other procedure to be followed?`

It depends a little on your platform and system settings which you didn't mention.

Usually its not an issue to have two version of C::B in parallel as long as the are in different paths (including the resources). On Eindows it is as easy as to select another path in the installer. On Linux you have to be careful with the package manager of your choice. Note that sharing the same settings might not be such a good idea. So the default.conf file should be provided for both versions in different places, i.e. by using profiles.
