How to change name of output executable in PhAB?

How do I change the name of the executable produced
by PhAB for an existing project?

PhAB uses the name of the project as the basis for the executable name, with
an appropriate suffix for the debug version. To change the name of the
executable in 6.2.1 PhAB you can use File → SaveAs to change the name of
the project, remove the old Makefile, and then re-generate and Make.

In 6.3.0 PhAB the directory structure and makefiles are different to match
the IDE. Again use File → SaveAs to change the name of the project. Then
just re-build - no Makefile removal is needed.

The above assumes stand-alone PhAB, i.e. not launched via the IDE.

Cheers,
Max

You talk about 6.3.0 as if it exists.
AFAIK it is not even in beta yet (not for common users anyway)
yet.
This is confusing…

Sorry for the confusion. I was stating what 6.3.0 is like in the current
beta release for selected users, and will be like in the wider release
coming soon.
