Question regarding several parallel CL installations
Fortunately before installing the latest 2419 build, I renamed my earlier installation, so that now that I have problems with 2419, I can very easily revert back to the earlier version, but it did raise a question in my mind:
Is there a better or preferred way to handle this sort of scenario?
What I have done, is to rename my main CL directory on c:\Program Files\ prior to installing the new version. Now it is simply a matter of exiting all work spaces and renaming the CL directories so only the one I want to use is called c:\.....\Codelite, the others have a suffix related to the build number
I still very much like CL and hope I can keep it that way
Very impressive work, Eran

Since CodeLite is not using registry, you can simply install it in different paths thats all

That is more or less what I have done; the only drawback - and it is not a big one - is that if I want to launch CL by double-clicking on a workspace, it needs to be on the path specified during installation.
