# Build configuration compatibility guide

As explained on the main Build Configuration page, as of AJDT v1.1.11 there is a new way of handling build configurations. Prior to this release build configurations were stored in .lst files.

It is, however, very easy to convert back and forth between .lst files and the new .ajproperties files. Starting with a .lst file, simply right-click and select the Save as .ajproperties file... option, as shown below.

This will bring up the following dialog prompting for the name of the new .ajproperties file.

The new file will then be created defining the same configuration in the new syntax. If the dialog option is selected, the new configuration will then become the active configuration.

Conversion back to .lst file format is also possible. Simply right-click on a .ajproperties file and select the Save as .lst file... option, as shown below.

The build configuration defined by the selected .ajproperties file is then converted to the .lst syntax and written to the specified file.
