Upgrading Dynamic C - Z-World Wolf BL2600 User Manual

4.1.1 Upgrading Dynamic C

4.1.1.1 Patches and Updates
Dynamic C patches that focus on patches and updates are available from time to time.
Check the Web site
• www.zworld.com/support/
for the latest patches, workarounds, and updates.
The default installation of a patch or update is to install the file in a directory (folder) dif-
ferent from that of the original Dynamic C installation. Z-World recommends using a dif-
ferent directory so that you can verify the operation of the patch or update without
overwriting the existing Dynamic C installation. If you have made any changes to the
BIOS or to libraries, or if you have programs in the old directory (folder), make these
same changes to the BIOS or libraries in the new directory containing the patch. Do not
simply copy over an entire file since you may overwrite an update; of course, you may
copy over any programs you have written. Once you are sure the new patch or update
works entirely to your satisfaction, you may retire the existing installation, but keep it
available to handle legacy applications.
4.1.1.2 Upgrades
Dynamic C installations are designed for use with the board they are included with, and
are included at no charge as part of our low-cost kits. Dynamic C is a complete software
development system, but does not include all the Dynamic C features. Z-World also offers
for sale add-on Dynamic C modules containing the popular µC/OS-II real-time operating
system, as well as PPP, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), RabbitWeb, FAT File Sys-
tem, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and other select libraries. In addition to the Web-based
technical support included at no extra charge, a one-year telephone-based technical sup-
port module is also available for purchase.
