Forum Topic - Switching QNX configurations in the IDE: (7 Items)
   
Switching QNX configurations in the IDE  
I have installed QNX 6.3.0 SP3 and QNX 6.5.0 on my Windows 7 PC.  Whenever I switch configurations (e.g. from 6.3.0 SP3 
to 6.5.0) within the IDE, I see a prompt to restart the IDE:

You will need to restart the IDE for the changes to take effect.  Would you like to restart now?

This is good, as I want the changes to take effect.  Some others have installed the same SDPs, but the IDE does not 
prompt to restart whenever the configuration is changed.  Since the prompt didn't appear, the user did not know to 
restart the IDE.  This caused subsequent builds to fail and much confusion followed.  Is there a configurable option 
that enables or disables this prompt?
Re: Switching QNX configurations in the IDE  
If it does not prompt it must be a bug. Do they use same version of IDE?

Re: Switching QNX configurations in the IDE  
Yes, it is the same beta version of IDE 4.7.1.  We deleted the eclipse directory that was installed with SDP 6.5.0 and 
replaced it with the IDE 4.7.1 version.

Anythings is in the log? (workspace/.metadata/.log?)

Re: Switching QNX configurations in the IDE  
The log file is attached.  Please let me know if you see the cause of this problem.  I think the configuration switch 
occurred between 8/30 and 9/1.

Rex,

He does not have this file:

D:\qnxsdk\qnxsdk6.5-001\host\win32\x86\usr\qde\eclipse\dropins\com.qnx.t
ools.ide.doc.qnx.momentics.6.5.0.link

Can you check to see if you have this file in your IDE 4.7.1?

Hi Andy,

I have the file on my drive.  It looks like the problem does not occur anymore after the lnk file is dropped into that 
path.  If it didn't directly fix the missing prompt problem, it definitely helped with using Help in the IDE.  Thanks 
for your help.
