Try the 6.5 to 6.6 upgrade!

[Steven_L_Intel1]

Release Candidate 1 of the CVF 6.5 to 6.6 upgrade is available for folks here to try out. The actual CVF software is final - but I'd like some further testing of the installation process before we start burning this to CDs.

Requirements - you must have currently installed CVF X86 6.5 or 6.5A, either Standard or Pro. No other versions work with this, including beta 6.6 versions. (If you were beta-testing 6.6, uninstall and delete DFOR*.DLL from the Windows System folder. Then reinstall 6.5. Or wait for us to offer an upgrade from the 6.6 "Sanity" kit.)

Installation is like the other CVF upgrades. Download CVF-65-66.exe (44.2MB). Run it and follow the prompts.

If you try it, please reply here and tell me how it went.

Steve, I have tested CVF 6.6 for a compiler bug that I got in version 6.5A, it's OK. But I got another bug in 6.6 and did not occur in 6.5A (I have submitted to vf-support@, but they were unable to find workaround).

Do you plan to fix a compiler bug on a final version 6.6?

toppo,

There will be no changes to 6.6 - a fix for your bug, when found, would go into the next update after that. Once we understand what the problem is, we can probably get you some sort of solution soon afterwards.
