After upgrading to VO2.8
in [Visual Objects]
|
From: tham chan weng on 29 May 2010 01:09 Hi, I had successfully converted 70% of my 2.6 to 2.8 and seems like running well. However there is a client using a couple of 2.6 apps developed by someone else which I do not have the source code. My question is what is the best and STABLE method to run all apps under both versions in one server. The current setup is the 2.6 libs are filed in p:\VO-Libs and the system common path is pointed to this location. I believe I can copy all 2.8 libs into each apps startup folder for the converted systems but this can be quite messy especially if I have to add or recompile some libs in the future. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

This is done by SplasScreen app, ie the runner of the "real" app. Updating on the server, automatically update the database structures (old database backup preceding...) My 2 c.

From: tham chan weng on 29 May 2010 06:00 Thanks Massimo, On this one I can't because the apps are run in TS enviroment. Furthermore many if not all, users need to work on both types of apps.

Hi, Yes. This is an option and is how I am doing it, but thought there is another way which may be more safe proof in the future.
