Mainly, I couldn't get static variables inside procedures to be visable in the debugger window. Here's how I set things up: I first tried to install on top of version 1, but the installer kept failing to find my origional CW Net Yaroze directory. I believe that I had moved and renamed the CW top directory, but that shouldn't be a problem with a Macintosh install script, right? Anyway, I then tried a clean install, but my yaroze project then had all sorts of problems with paths (which shouldn't be happening with a Mac application!). Then I tried to move my origional CW 1 directory (backed up, ofcourse) to the location of the newly installed CW 2 (now removed) and renamed it to the name given to the CW 2 install. This time the installer complained about finding the origional, but installed anyway. Just to make sure about the install, I compared the HD version of my combined CW directory with the CD-ROM version and made sure all of the new files were transferred. Finally, I moved and renamed the new CW directory back to the place my project would be expecting it and was finally able to compile. This is when I noticed the problem with the debugger. In order to complete continue debugging my project, I reverted back to CW 1. Can you tell me what I did wrong and how I can install the new version without losing compatibility with my existing projects? NOTE: I'm running CW under system 8 on a PowerMac 8500, 160Mbyte RAM. Thanks! David
