Installing an Upgraded SAP Mobile SDK

You can install version 2.3 of the SAP Mobile SDK on the same system as an earlier version of the SDK. The earlier version of the SDK is not upgraded and you can use both versions as needed.

If you specify the same installation directory as the earlier SDK version, the installer places the new version SDK installation in a subdirectory at the same level as the earlier SDK version, for example:

<MobileSDK_InstallDir>
    MobileSDK213
    MobileSDK22
    MobileSDK23

Maintaining more than one version of SAP Mobile SDK allows you to defer making application code changes until you are ready to do so, or until you need to use features that are available only in the newer SDK version.

Continue using the earlier SDK version to make minor modifications in applications that do not require features that are only available in the later version.
Migrate applications to the newer SDK version to use features that are available only in the later version. See Developer Guide: Migrating to SAP Mobile SDK.
When you have finished migrating all your applications to the newer SDK version, you can remove the older version using the Windows Add/Remove Programs option on the Control Panel.
