I have to say that I can't understand why 10.0 would be finding 9.6's license file though - the license.dat file is in a specific place in the relevant CW directory so I can't see how they would get confused ? > > Although the name Metrowerks has gone in favor of CodeWarrior there > should be a license department at Freescale for many years to come. > I hope so. I imagine that I'll probably need to use CW from time to time for the next 2 - 3 years, maybe longer. I guess if/when MetroWerks closes down copletely somebody with the relevant reverse engineering skills will find a way to defeat the license mechanism so that people can go on using CW if they need to.
