Upgrading a Dinosaur

[eluser]smatakajr[/eluser]
Hi I am not new to CI now but i had taken over an old framework of CI
and pretty much rewrote the whole application from scratch. I am now
syncing it with a dev box because the app is live and i need to make
alot of changes. So I started to investigate upgrading the CI framework
and here is the headers of the CI core files

* CodeIgniter
*
* An open source application development framework for PHP 4.3.2 or newer
*
* @package CodeIgniter
* @author Rick Ellis
* @copyright Copyright © 2006, EllisLab, Inc.
* @license http://www.codeignitor.com/user_guide/license.html
* @LinK http://www.codeigniter.com
* @since Version 1.0
* @filesource

Version 1.0!! Well... I see we have 1.7.1 out and i would love to upgrade
but when i see the upgrading manual we have 1.0=>1.3 1.3=>1.4 etc...

Well is there a safe way to upgrade 1.0 to 1.7 without breaking everything

Your input is appreciated

Hi Rick.

Not a nice thing to do hey !!.

I would suggest looking at the changelog and see what functions have been Removed. Then search for those functions within your code to see if they excist and modify.

You maybe able to jump from 1 to 1.71.

Good luck

I've only been using CI since 1.6, but as far as I've seen, they leave old code in place for legacy application (the old for validation class being a prime example)
