Question:

ActiveX minor release conflict: chilkatax-9.5.0-win32.dll

Apr 08 '15 at 13:29

I have a customer with two different versions of chilkatax-9.5.0-win32.dll (.48 versus .43) in two different applications on the same machine. Using the application with the .43 version causes the .48 version to lose its dll registeration and the application then fails.

Is there a way to avoid such conflicts? For example, could you release the dll with a unique name & registration per each minor release?

Answer

Use an application manifest properly configured for SxS registration.
