[windows] multiple Ripple instance should be forbidden (2034232) #36

Open dbrgss opened 13 years ago

dbrgss commented 13 years ago

Currently , it is possible to open multiple Ripple instances on windows while Mac only runs one instance .

it should be forbidden to open multiple Ripple instances for same Ripple version application , since they share same local database storge/config.ini

In the User Stories we have the following: US 8444 [OSS] Multiple versions of the tool can co-exist on the same machine.

Currently we can allow multiple versions to be installed by installing them in different locations. But the problem is that when running the two different versions at the same time, both version will be accessing the same database and config.ini file that are located here: C:\Documents and Settings\Application Data\Research In Motion\Ripple

Both versions of Ripple will encounter problems when running as they both will need to update those files at the same time.

But we need the ability for a user to open up to instances of Ripple on the same machine. This will be essential as we move into emulating BBM APIs.

Hi Tim..

Yeah I agree... The name of the Issue was a direct copy from the MKS issue... You are right though... the fix is NOT to make it forbidden but to make sure it works with the database issue in mind.

This issue seems to be related to https://github.com/blackberry/Ripple-UI/issues/397 If the dates are correct, this seems to be pretty stale so I'd like to shove it back into the spotlight. Any progress on this side?
