How to find an installer of an old ChibiStudio version

Post by Tinkerer »

Dear people,

I'm trying to compile code made with ChibiStudio Preview 19. I'd like to get the installer / zip file for that to at least first try in a 'known good environment' before updating to ChibiStudio Preview 20, but I can't find it on sourceforge. Is it still available?

Hi,

Space constraints. all the available versions are here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/chibio ... ibiStudio/

Do you need a specific version? I need to check if I have those stored somewhere.

Hello Giovanni,

Preview 19 is what I need, would be very happy if you could share it somewhere, if needed you can send me a WeTransfer link over PM.

Greetings,
Tinkerer.

The project was made in that version, the person developing it is now working through a major update of another part of the firmware, so I can't ask him to migrate ChibiStudio to a new version too.

I actually thought it was a simple question, but apparently it's not :roll: sorry guys!

Maybe you can still use ChibiStudio Preview 20 switching to an older workspace

Are you aware which version of ChibiOS is in use in that project?

You can retrofit the old ChibiOS version in the new ChibiStudio v20. The tool barely changed if at all.

Which ChibiOS version do you need?

The Chibios version is 176. Would this be compatible with Chibistudio Preview 20?

Yes it is!
ChibiStudio Preview 20 comes with chibios 182, chibios 176 and chibios trunk.

How to make it work?

1. Install ChibiStudio P 20
2. Launch the newly installed ChibiStudio
3. File->Switch Workspace->C:\Chibistudio\workspace176 (eclipse will restart changing workspace)
4. Import your project
5. Done
