General Interface is an open source project hosted by the Dojo Foundation

Running Multiple Instances of General Interface Builder

General Interface Builder is designed to run as multiple instances simultaneously. You can open multiple instances of General Interface Builder from the same installation folder. Each instance of General Interface can run a different application or the same application.

Because each instance is sharing the same preferences and settings files, competing changes to General Interface Builder preferences cannot be persisted.

You can also have multiple instances of General Interface Builder running projects in the same workspace or from multiple workspaces.

Multiple releases can also be open at the same time. For example, you can open a project in General Interface 3.1 and also open a copy of that project in 3.2 at the same time.

In addition, you can open multiple instances and multiple releases in different browsers, such as Internet Explorer and Firefox.

When a project canvas file is saved in a newer version of General Interface Builder, it cannot be open in an older version.
