The typical approach would be to use "git pull" to update the source code, then build a fresh platform target.  As there is typically a significant amount of change from one version to the next, we don't support ABI compatability across versions.

For example:

cd charm;
git pull;
git checkout v6.6.0-rc4;
./build charm++ netlrts-linux-x86_64 smp -j8 --with-production --suffix version6.6.0rc4;

Would update the source, change to the release candidate for version 6.6.0 (final release coming soon), then build the netlrts-linux-x86_64-smp target with version6.6.0rc4 appended to the end (netlrts-linux-x86_64-smp-version6.6.0rc4) to distinguish it from older builds.

Is there a way to upgrade Charm++ from an older version to the latest version?

Thanks,
