You may also want to recompile any apps based on it, but this is not strictly necessary. Although different versions of libprotobuf.so are not binary-compatible (C++ sadly makes compatibility too difficult to achieve), we use libtool's version numbering to make sure that binary-incompatible versions of libprotobuf do not overwrite each other. So, any binaries you compiled against the old version will continue to use the old version at runtime. If you want to uninstall the old version, then run "make uninstall" from the same directory where you you ran "make install" to install it. BTW, 2.2.0 will be out in the next week or two. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Protocol Buffers" group.
