We have several applications using EO.WebBrowser. Since they all don't release at the same time, the applications are sometimes running with different versions of EO.WebBrowser.

Can they all use the same cache directory, even if they are different versions of EO.WebBrowser? Or would we be best to have each application have its own cache directory?

Thanks
David

Hi,

No. You definitely can not use the same cache directory. Each instance of the Engine object must use a different cache directory or cache file corruption can occur. Since different version of EO.WebBrowser would definitely be running different Engine instance, they must have different cache directory.

Thanks!

Would different invocations of the exact same executable also conflict with each other?

Is there an answer to my last question? We are really trying to decide what to do with our multiple applications.
Thank you, David

Hi,

Sorry that we missed that question. Different invocation of the exact same executable should be fine because they are all the same version. If you do not set CachePath at all, the default cache path value will automatically include the DLL version in order to avoid version mismatch issues.

Thanks!
