topic Feature request: Faster/simpler upgrading of LPCXpresso in LPCXpresso IDE https://community.nxp.com/t5/LPCXpresso-IDE/Feature-request-Faster-simpler-upgrading-of-LPCXpresso/m-p/577601#M23286 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><STRONG>Content originally posted in LPCWare by OldManVimes on Mon Jul 21 05:16:11 MST 2014</STRONG><BR /><SPAN>Hi support,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I had a look in the forums and FAQ but could not immediately find a post about a similar subject.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I try to keep up to date with LPCXpresso releases, and appreciate the release frequency. The recent advances in the toolkit have been worth the effort to upgrade. </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Every install creates a new isolated copy of the tool-set. This can make perfect sense, so it is wise to keep this option. However, every time I update, I need to re-install and copy my workspace and setup my additional plug-ins (for configuration management and DoxyGen). Also, I need to export and import my Eclipse settings (or redo them from scratch). This takes about 30 minutes, so basically I have little reason to complain.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Having said that though, it would be very nice if the upgrade would take less time. I think that translates to a more automated upgrade. Is this a subject you are considering for future versions?</SPAN><BR /></BODY></HTML> Wed, 15 Jun 2016 22:37:24 GMT lpcware 2016-06-15T22:37:24Z Feature request: Faster/simpler upgrading of LPCXpresso https://community.nxp.com/t5/LPCXpresso-IDE/Feature-request-Faster-simpler-upgrading-of-LPCXpresso/m-p/577601#M23286 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><STRONG>Content originally posted in LPCWare by OldManVimes on Mon Jul 21 05:16:11 MST 2014</STRONG><BR /><SPAN>Hi support,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I had a look in the forums and FAQ but could not immediately find a post about a similar subject.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I try to keep up to date with LPCXpresso releases, and appreciate the release frequency.

Each update typically includes:</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>- some eclipse/plugin updates</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>- updates to compilers and libraries</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>- updates to wizards and examples</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>- updates to debug drivers and firmware</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>This is complicated by delivering across 3 platforms, meaning that a single update/patch is not possible.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 15 Jun 2016 22:37:25 GMT https://community.nxp.com/t5/LPCXpresso-IDE/Feature-request-Faster-simpler-upgrading-of-LPCXpresso/m-p/577602#M23287 lpcware 2016-06-15T22:37:25Z
