Re: Two versions of iSphere libraries on one system?

Yes - it is very simple.

From within iSphere where you tell it to install the host library, you can change the name to be what you want to use and it will create and upload to that library. On our system, each developer has their own copy with their initials at the end of the name. That way everyone can update when they want and the libraries are still easy to identify.

I'd be more precise but I can't get RDi to work at present and so have no access to iSphere.

Is it possible to have two different versions of the ISPHERE library installed on one system so that users aren't forced to upgrade their RDi plug-in?

I work in a very large organization with siloed, remote development teams. RDi users probably number in the hundreds. I have zero idea how many use iSphere. Currently, the installed ISPHERE library is at v2.8.0. I would like to get to the latest v5.2.9.

Is it possible to leave the v2.8 library on the system, install the v5.2.9 library as ISPHERE529, then have the v5.2.9 plug-in point to the ISPHERE529 library?
