jbuilder0
I have a licence for JBuilder 8 and want to install JB9 and give my old JB8 to someone else in my company. Both copies are licensed full copies, not upgrades.
What is the best way to do this while maintaining my current IDE settings?
thanks
Mike

copies, not upgrades.
they're not going to hassle you about it, since what you're doing is
perfectly legal, but you need them to reset the license. The number
should be on the registration dialog after you install JB8 on the new
computer, but if it's not, I think 1 (888) 588-2230 will work.
transitioning your settings from one version to another. You can kind
of do it yourself by copying the .jbuilder8/user.properties file to
.jbuilder9/user.properties (and similarly you can copy *.library and
other files), but then you're relying on certain things staying the same
between versions. It will probably work, but you should make backups
first. If you want to do a really good, careful job you could edit the
user.properties file instead of copying it and try to merge in the
settings yourself.
