That's a long time ago since I came across this question ...
In that era (still win XP, DevStudio releases 76x) it was possible to do that. Haven't tried it with the current 77x versions, but it may work.
Steps then were actually quite easy, but you do had to be sure that both DevStudio's use the same java version. And: All installed copies share the same connection file.
- Install the versions ina clearly distinguishable different directory.
- Before starting DevStudio first run the corresponding thisfoci.bat file (to be found in the bin directory)
- Then start DevStudio.
It used to work like that, and as said not sure if it still works with the new versions.
