Update from 5.0.6213 to 5.1.0

Post by Fred »

Thanks to Eran and his team for the new update.

I have installed codelite-5.0.6213-mingw4.7.1-wx2.9.4.exe on Vista.
Is it ok to update to 5.1.0 by just running codelite-5.1.0.exe without deinstallation before?
Do I need to install some wx-module, too? (I dont use wx in my projects.)

TIA,
Fred

No

Note that one of the changes (Windows only) in this release was also upgrading the GCC version that comes with codelite. The previous version you installed had GCC4.6.1, the 5.1 contains GCC4.7.1 (which has a better support for C++11)
So you might want to upgrade to codelite-5.1.0-mingw-4.7.1.exe, this is optionally ofc (just to get a newer compiler) - but this is *not* a must

Thanks Eran, for your quick reply.
I installed MinGW 4.7.1 already with 5.0.6213, because it was actually contained in the installation file codelite-5.0.6213-mingw4.7.1-wx2.9.4.exe.
