upgrade of a a cvi project

[cotrono]

Hello everybody!

I'm a newbie cvi user (CVI 7.1 version). I would know if it is possible to realize the upgrade version of a cvi project in a simple way. For example: I realized the version 1.0 of a program for doing something, and it work fine. Now I would add some improvements to the project, but normally, if I work on the same project, after the improvements the program stop to work (not very good improvements) and I have to spent a lot of time for searching for errors. At present I copy all files (.c, .h, .prj, .uir ...) on a directory something_old, but I would know if there exsists an automatic way to do a project upgrade.

Thanks a lot,

Cosimo

Hi Cosimo,

actually there's no way to export a whole CVI project with all the linked files. The way you're using now is ok (copying all files to a new location). Additionally, you could use a Sourc Code Control (SCC) provider for managing code changes and backup. Here's a link that can help you:

Source Code Control (SCC) in LabWindows/CVI

Hope this helps,

Best regards,
