632 with 4.71 Upgrade   
Hi, I am trying to upgrade to 4.71 for use with 6.32. And am confused

Can you help me with this

o	Memory Analysis: To use improved memory analysis - install new memory analysis library, called librcheck. Download and
 unzip in the $QNX_TARGET folder on the host if you making images, for the target extract <arch> folder from archive (i.
e. x86) in the root. 

The archive contains several  files 

librcheck_632_090413.zip
librcheck_632_090415.zip
librcheck_632_090828.tar.gz
rcheck-632-090331.zip

I am using a windows host.

Which archive do I need to install in my $QNX_TARGET folder on my host (PC) ?

What do I need to extract to my target machine? my Target is x86 based?

Is there any documentation on using the new Memory Analysis tools?

Thanks

You can hold on applying a patch until you get familiar with it first

Take the latest patch  librcheck_632_090828.tar.gz
Download and unzip in the $QNX_TARGET folder on the host if you making images, for the target  (device) extract <arch> 
folder from archive (i.e. x86) in the root of the target file system.

Re: 632 with 4.71 Upgrade   
Thanks for the reply. If I don't apply the patches, will the old Qconn work OK with the new on in the QDE? Will there be
 any problems? What tools will I have to avoid if the patches are not applied?

Thanks

Re: 632 with 4.71 Upgrade   
This patch is only for memory analysis tool. If you don't apply it you will be using old library called libmalloc and 
some functionality would not be available but it will continue working.

Sorry to keep asking, but will things still be OK without the new QConn too, as I dont have acces to the OS image on the
 target, so cannot add the new QConn. The debugger tells me that qconn is out of date on the target?

Thanks again for all your help
