TSM2 with multiple A:M versions

[Paul Forwood]

Is it possible to have TSM2 installed and operable for more than one version of A:M at the same time? For instance, can I use TSM2 with both A:M 11.1i and A:M 12.0t?

 

I can understand, if this is not possible, but I just wanted to know if there is something I have overlooked and don't want to go attempting to install it twice if it might cause problems with file paths for TSM2.

 

Thanks.

 

Edit: Okay, the installer ensures that previous versions of TSM2 are un-installed before installing a new version so I guess it wouldn't be possible to have it installed in two locations at the same time but can one installation service two versions of A:M?

Huh? TSM2 is just a folder with some plugins in it. You can just drag it from one plugin folder to another to make a copy. I run TSM2 in both v11.1i and v12.0t, and it runs identically in both versions.

Thanks, Luckbat!

Good to know it's that simple.

The installer-maker we use automatically asks you to un-install previous versions, but it really isn't necessary for TSM2. You should be able to cancel the un-install and install a second copy to a different A:M folder, or copy the files manually as Luckbat suggests. Be sure to grab the three TSM2 hxts and the TSM2 folder. There are some support files in the main A:M folder that you may need to copy as well, depending on your system configuration: MFC71.dll, msvcp71.dll, and msvcr71.dll.

 

Let me know if you run into any problems with either of these methods.
