What is the difference between NX witness and NX MEta VMS?
Answered
I am using meta VMS version=4.1.0.30731. Using this I have developed a plugin. It's working as I expected in NX Meta VMS application. I just installed latest stable version of NX witness as well and shifted used the same plugin in witness also to check how it's working. But, it throws unsupported format error. I am not sure whether I can use the same plugin for witness also. Is it possible? What causes this issue? What is the difference between Nx Meta VMS and NX Witness?

Hello Mohamed,
You are using the Meta VMS the version=4.1.0.30731 and develop a plugin with the SDK for version 4.1.
Meanwhile, there is no public release of Nx Witness 4.1 at the moment. Most probably, you have installed the latest build of 4.0.
Versions 4.0 and 4.1 as well as 4.0 SDK and 4.1 SDK are not the same, they have differences and compiled plugins might not be compatible across major versions.
Could you share an archive with your DeviceAgent code please?

Hello Andrey,
You are right, I have installed NX Witness version=4.0.0.29987. If I use build a plugin using NX Meta VMS version x.x.x.x and tried to enable the plugin in the same NX Witness version x.x.x.x it should work right?
Basically my question is If I develop a plugin from Meta VMS and enable the plugin on NX Witness and both Meta VMS and NX Witness version is same it should work right? or should I make any specific change to work on NX Witness?

MetaVMS is a version of Nx Witness for development and testing new features.
Plugins are compatible in the boundaries of one version. I.e. a plugin for MetaVMS 4.0 will run in Nx Wintess 4.0.
Plugins are compatible with a VMS of greater version. I.e. a plugin for MetaVMS 4.0 will run in MetaVMS 4.1 and in Nx Wintess 4.1.
