Exam PL-400 topic 2 question 63 discussion

Import SolutionA and SolutionB as unmanaged. Why? Development Environment Requirement: The developer needs a clean environment where changes to SolutionA do not affect SolutionB. Unmanaged solutions allow editable components without restrictions, which is critical for development. Avoiding Managed Solution Lockdown: If either solution were imported as managed, their components would be locked (preventing customization in SolutionA). Example: If SolutionB were managed, its shared components couldn’t be modified by SolutionA’s developer. Isolation of Customizations: Unmanaged imports ensure: SolutionA’s changes remain independent of SolutionB. No risk of "layer mixing" conflicts (which occur with mixed managed/unmanaged imports).

A company deploys managed customizations by using two solutions, SolutionA and SolutionB. The solutions share components with one another. A developer for SolutionA requires a new development environment. Customizations made in SolutionA must not interfere with customizations made in SolutionB. You need to import solutions to prepare the environment. What should you do? A. Import SolutionA as managed and SolutionB as unmanaged. B. Import SolutionA and SolutionB as unmanaged. C. Import SolutionA as unmanaged and SolutionB as managed. D. Import SolutionA and SolutionB as managed.
