Multiple instances, different connection modes?

[bcoulam]

Hi!

Trying to save my lazy self some testing time. Do you know whether two instances of PL/SQL Developer could be running concurrently, but in different modes, one in single session and the other in multi-session? Is that fine, or would that cause unforeseen issues? If possible, would there be a way to start PL/SQL Developer from the command line in the different modes? That would allow me to have two different desktop shortcuts that quickly start the two flavors of instances.

Thanks.

I have not tried this, but you probably can create two Preference Sets, one with Single Session mode, another with Multi. And then call PLD with parameter

prefpath=

I use similar method to choose between different Oracle Homes with parameter

oraclehome=
