Subject: Re: [lwip-users] lwip 2.0 upgrading

[email protected]:

  i’m currently working on a project using lwip 1.4.1 stack (raw api with 
tcpip), and since i’m still in development anyways i thought i might use the 
newest lwip 2.0 stack instead. Can i just swap them out or how do i “upgrade” 
to 2.0?

Unless you enable IPv6, you should be able to just swap with one difference: 
even when using DHCP, you have to manually set the interface up (netif_set_up) 
or else, no packet will be sent out. There might be other things that have 
changed, we'll have to round up the UPGRADING document. As 1.4.1 is rather old 
to me and I have kept up with git master, I'll have to look that up, though...


  Are there any major “bugs” open, since i’ve read that it’s only in beta?

No. There are bugs open, but no major bugs (or else it would be an "alpha" :-)


  Do i have any major benefit from upgrading?

Yes. Many bugs fixed since then! You only risk running into things that are 
already fixed. While, 1.4.1 has been pretty stable as well, it's now a good 
time to upgrade :-)
