Add a checkbox to the project to add automatically the methode upgrade into the manifest, preventing to uninstall / install component and have to restor data if we have some.

<install type="component" version="1.5" method="upgrade">

Oh yes thanks to remember this.


In 1.7, it is working, but not on 1.5, you are right.
Oh oh, So much work to do !!!

I have also to put a protection to not install a 1.5 component on a 1.7 Joomla and vice-versa.
Coding is now a piece of cake

I dont think you need to put protection for that.

its not the same manifest. so normally, you cant install a component for 1.5 on 1.7 or vise-versa. Only provide the good manifest version and all will be ok. (I think)

This is what you call a component builder. I was able to master using this in a very short time and the resulting component works like a charm. Not just a basic component builder but a fully working component builder with forms fields tables all ready to go. You can make the list and item views to display in the front and back end. Also there is a great forum just starting to evolve and I'm sure this will grow very rapidly when you all realise how good this tool is.
