Converting a Single 1.7 Project
The CodeWarrior IDE has the ability to convert project files to the newest format from the format used by the 1.7 version of the IDE.
Windows
To convert a single 1.7 project, open it from the latest version of the IDE. The IDE prompts you to convert the project to the newest format. The IDE uses the name of the original file as the basis for the name of the converted project file.
Mac OS
The IDE uses a conversion utility called Project Converter. The IDE uses the name of the original file as the basis for the name of the converted project file. You can find Project Converter in the Other Metrowerks Tools subfolder of the Metrowerks folder of your CodeWarrior installation. You can convert a single project in one of the following ways:
The IDE backs up the project file before converting it. However, if you enable the Use Local Project Data Storage checkbox in the Build Settings preference panel and convert a project on locked media, the IDE does not back up the project file before converting it.
WARNING!
1.7.x projects must be converted to the new format if you want to work with them in the latest version of the IDE. The conversion of the project to the newest format is permanent. The latest version of the IDE cannot save a project in 1.7.x format.
