User’s Manual 335.3 Upgrading Dynamic CDynamic C patches that focus on bug fixes are available from time to time. Check the Websites www.rabbit.com/support/ for the latest patches, workarounds, and bug fixes.The default installation of a patch or bug fix is to install the file in a directory (folder) dif-ferent from that of the original Dynamic C installation. Rabbit Semiconductor recom-mends using a different directory so that you can verify the operation of the patch withoutoverwriting the existing Dynamic C installation. If you have made any changes to theBIOS or to libraries, or if you have programs in the old directory (folder), make thesesame changes to the BIOS or libraries in the new directory containing the patch. Do notsimply copy over an entire file since you may overwrite a bug fix; of course, you maycopy over any programs you have written. Once you are sure the new patch works entirelyto your satisfaction, you may retire the existing installation, but keep it available to handlelegacy applications.5.3.1 UpgradesDynamic C installations are designed for use with the board they are included with, andare included at no charge as part of our low-cost kits.
