2753.0. "mismatch possible error on Digital Unix" by CARDHU::BOURAKOFF (MCS/STN-IM Switzerland 761-4820) Fri Jan 31 1997 08:05

    Using Digital Unix is that possible to use 2 differents versions of DMQ
    like DMQ V3.2 and DMQ V3.2-A on the same machine (both versions of
    the product are installed)

    It is possible.  However,  whichever version you install second
    will  overwrite  the  symbolic  links  in  /usr/bin,   /usr/lib,
    /usr/include and so forth.  That means you have to  extra  care-
    ful when running applications. That is  you  should  have  your
    path setup to point through the appropriate bin directories.
    For instance
    
    set path = (/usr/kits/DMA32A/bin $path)
    
    should guarantee that you are running V3.2A. this would have to
    be done in your shell login script (.profile, .login, .cshrc or
    equivalent).   similarly when building applications you need to
    be careful when compiling against the include files and linking
    against the libraries. lastly,  you need to worry about running
    applications.   applications  need to be linked against the run-
    ning version. if you have a single application that you want to
    run against the two different versions you would need two  sepa-
    rately linked images of that application and make sure you  run
    the correct one.
                                                 
    In short it is more trouble than it is worth.
