How can I test my website in multiple versions of firefox? I have v2 installed. Now no matter where or how many times I install FF3, it always executes ff2.. I checked the interweb and it seems there used to be a MultiFireFox tool that could run several versions. It was for apple and I'm on windows. Furthermore all the links to it are d...
I am writing an application that will ship in several different versions (initially around 10 variations of the code base will exist, and will need to be maintained). Of course, 98% or so of the code will be the same amongst the different systems, and it makes sense to keep the code base intact. My question is - what would be the prefer...

This question might belong to the Super User site, but then again: this is about debugging HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Am I able to run Internet Explorer 5.5, 6.0, 7.0 and 8.0 on a single Windows Vista install? If yes: how? Update: Duplicate of this question ...
If you install multiple versions of python (I currently have the default 2.5, installed 3.0.1 and now installed 2.6.2), it automatically puts stuff in /usr/local, and it also adjusts the path to include the /Library/Frameworks/Python/Versions/theVersion/bin, but whats the point of that when /usr/local is already on the PATH, and all inst...
So I'm in charge to deploy my project on the productive server where some other ASP.NET-Websites are also set up. The problem now is that I wrote my whole project under .NET 3.5 but on the webserver the current installation is .NET 1.1 as some of the other projects require them (don't ask me why, I can't figure it out either but my PM s...
I have some guys here who have code that needs to be compiled with gcc-3.3. We have a CentOS 5.2. When we compile it with their make files, it fails during the link and they say it is because it won't work with gcc-3.4 which is installed already. Is there something I need to tell them to change to make it go, or is it possible to find...
This subject has been disturbing me for some time. For my Python project I wanted to be able to support Python versions 2.4 to 3.1. I thought a bit about how to do this, and eventually decided to have four separate forks of the source code for four different versions of Python: 2.4, 2.5, 2.6 and 3.1. I have come to view that as a bad d...

Here is my problem , I need to start development on a new project and was planning to use PHP 5.3 for it so that I can use the latest Zend framework and active record with it . However the machine where I need to host my application has PHP 4.4 and ...
We recently converted our long-running Delphi project to Open Source. Multiple people have contributed patches already, which is great, but unfortunately forms and frames when saved with Delphi 2006 (and later) contain new properties in the .dfm that are not handled by older versions. Forms are handled quite gracefully by the IDE ("ignor...
A group of us are working on a project which we built with .NET 3.5 in Visual Studio 2008. I want to test out Visual Studio 2010 and .NET 4 (well, mainly for WPF 4). I am just wondering if I install VS 2010, will I still be able to use VS 2008 to open the first project. I know when I open older projects made in VS 2003/2005, I get an up...
I want to be able to support multiple versions of Java ME without having to have multiple builds. I already know how to detect the profile/configuration/supported JSRs. My problem is that knowing whether the JSR is supported at run time doesn't allow me to use all the features as Java-ME does not provide support for reflection. For if I...

short version: how can I get rid of the multiple-versions-of-python nightmare ? long version: over the years, I've used several versions of python, and what is worse, several extensions to python (e.g. pygame, pylab, wxPython...). Each time it was on a different setup, with different OSes, sometimes different architectures (like my old ...
We have several .NET applications developed in .NET 3.5 (Windows services, web applications, and WCF services) in different servers. I'd like to migrate to .NET 4.0 and use VS.NET 2010. Does VS.NET 2010 compiles to .NET 3.5 to avoid full simultaneous migration, being able to stop using VS.NET 2008 but maintaining some applications in ...
I've installed GCC 3.4 to /opt/gcc-3.4, and I'm using it to compile legacy code which is incompatible with GCC 4. This also means old versions of the C(++) standard libraries, binutils, and utility libraries. It works fine for some libraries, but fails when compiling libtiff, because it picks up the system libraries in /usr/lib (see out...
I would like to install several different versions of perl in my home directory. I tried using App::perlbrew, but XS modules from one version were causing segfaults in the other version. Is there any way to install multiple versions of perl and have them automatically keep their XS modules separate? ...
I want to run multiple Python version in my box. Is there anything like version manager in Python where I can switch between multiple Python version without having to call the full path of the python binary? I have tried virtualenv and it seems to only cover problems running multiple python libraries version. Thanks for your help. ...
I'm using perlbrew right now to manage multiple versions of perl, but perlbrew is global. If I do perlbrew switch perl-5.10.1 in any shell, then all shells and scripts will now be using perl version 5.10.1. There is no isolation. Is there any way to make perlbrew switches local to a shell, or is there a similar tool capable of locally ch...
I have seen plenty of people mention some of the cool new features in Perl >= 5.12 but my preferred flavor of Linux Ubuntu only comes with 5.10.1. I have no fear of PPAs and I know how to google (unless someone finds me something, then I'll feel sheepish). I cannot find someone that provides a Perl PPA; I thought there was a PPA for ev...
