Forum Topic - Installing QNX 6.2 after QNX 6.3 on Windows: (3 Items)
   
Installing QNX 6.2 after QNX 6.3 on Windows  
Hello,

I have a Windows XP (SP2) PC which had QNX 6.3 compiler and IDE installed. I then installed QNX 6.2 (had to work on a 
different project) without uninstalling the existing 6.3. I wanted to know if this is allowed as I have been facing few 
problems while switching between QNX
6.3 and 6.2.
The Configuration tool in 6.3 does not list QNX 6.2 as an option. I have to manually change the Host Files and Target 
Files options for "Custom"
in the Configuration tool each time I switch from 6.3 to 6.2. Is there an easier way to solve this problem?

Thanks
Sunil

You trying to use IDE from 6.3.2 to work with 6.2.1 tools? You can add fake configuration file, so IDE has a switch i.e.

copy xml from $QNX_CONFIGURATION and set paths to ones that needed for 6.2.1. Y
ou can also try to override environment variables before you start IDE (see FAQ http://community.qnx.com/sf/wiki/do/
viewPage/projects.ide/wiki/IDEGeneralFAQ).

Hi Sunil,

QNX Momentics 6.3.0 cannot coexist with version 6.2.0.   It can coexist with version 6.2.1 and later.

If you tried installing 6.3.0 on top of 6.2.0, the installer would display proper error message.
