Managing syncfusion with subversion.

[Ben Held]

Hi,

I am struggling with how to manage syncfusion upgrades across our 7-8 licenses. The basic problem is the requirement that every developer have syncfusion installed when our code base is managed using Subversion.

When a new release of Syncfusion is available, we have to have every developer uninstall their current Syncfusion, install the new one, etc. This means that they can no longer go back to old revisions in our source code and expect them to build run.

Is there a prescription for how to manage multile Syncfusion versions under a version control system? It's a real hassle right now.

Hi Asher,

Thanks for using Syncfusion Products.

To develop your application/project using Syncfusion controls means you need to install the particular EssentialStudio version in your machine.

Suppose you want only build your application means you no need to install the particular EssentialStudio version. Just installing the License key for the particular version is enough to build your application. you could store the multiple versions of Syncfusion assemblies in your version control and build your application with whatever version you want. Before build your application can you please ensure that GAC does not have multiple or different version of Syncfusion assemblies and make sure that your project referencing the correct Syncfusion assemblies. Please refer the below KB article to build your application without installing Syncfusion setup.

Note: Suppose you want to install multiple versions of Syncfusion EssentialStudio in your development machine, you are able to switch the different version of EssentialStudio assemblies in your application or project. Could you please refer the below KB article for switching syncfusion versions.
