Hi group
This must sound like a dumb question. How can I update from ISE and EDK 8.1 to 8.2?
I downlaoded and installed the available patches for 8.1 and there are patches available for 8.2 but I can't see an option / way to actually update 8.1 into 8.2. Do I just have to downlaod and install the 8.2 patches (haven't tried this since I'm afraid to screw things up). Is there another way?
TIA
Markus
I usually do a fresh install for .x releases.
Cheers, Jon
8.2i is not an update to 8.1i. It is a new product.

it depends on your license if you are able to download 8.2 or not. there is no automatic upgrade if your license is expired or does not allow electronic delivery of the ISE/EDK
you cant just install 8.2 patches, you need the 8.2 DVD or DVD image

If you are on an active maintenance you should get 8.2 in the mail. You can also ask for access to downloadable version. If your maintenance has expired you will have to buy it again...

Hmmm, odd - I just got my developper kit from AVNet ~6 weeks ago. I don't know if this means I'm able to get 8.2 now or not. Thanks anyways, I will try if I can find out by going through our purchase departement....

You are definitely eligible for the upgrade. Talk to Xilinx directly and ask for access to downloadable version.
