Re: Testing 1.31



Hi Todd,

The only thing that's installed outside of the library you install HTTPAPI into (it does not have to be LIBHTTP, that is just the default name) is a symbolic link in the IFS from /usr/bin/httpapi to the HTTPQSHR4 program in whatever library you pick.

If you do not use the QShell interface to HTTPAPI, this symbolic link probably doesn't matter to you at all, in that case, no need to worry about it. (This is the case for most HTTPAPI users, very few use the QShell interface.)

If you do use the QShell interface, you probably want to delete that symlink, and create separate ones in different directories for each version of HTTPAPI, and have users adjust their PATH accordingly.

Everything else is done in the install library.

We are currently on 1.24 and are going to 1.31. We want to test 1.31 against the applications we have using HTTPAPI before we install and, looking for the easiest route to doing this, our thought is to install a secondary LIBHTTP lib at 1.31 and layer a project library under it with the apps in question. It seems pretty basic on the surface. I guess what we're wanting to know is if there are any objects installed outside of the LIBHTTP library that are created/affected when a new installation of the software is installed. Obviously we don't want to inadvertently step on the existing 1.24 functionality.

Thanks for your time.
