Deploy two version of com objects on same computer (wodTelnetDLX)

by Jeff.sajedi, Tuesday, December 16, 2014, 22:48 (3629 days ago)

We have two applications, one written in C# using the most recent version of wodTelnetDLX and another written in VB6, using and older version.

We cannot upgrade the VB6 application.

If we install the C# application, the VB6 application will not work.

How can we install both applications on the same computer?

Jeff,

hi. I'm not sure if this can be done. Two things come to my mind. First is explained here:

msdn

Stackoverflow

which you could try. Another, easier one, perhasp you're running x64 system? If so, put old version for x86 (VB6 is x86), and use new version for x64 (C# will use x64). Perhaps that's easy way to do it?

Kind regards,
Kreso

Hi
Why not, installing Virtual box "VMWARE" and your preferable Operating System,
then install Visual Studio6 for Vb6, and your vb6 application launched here.
While on your main system Run your C# Telnet application.

May be this is a good solution.
