On a similar note, we have picked up a legacy system using ChartFX8.0 for which we want to setup CI/CD. The build system is TFS on an IT shared server on which they are reluctant to install a ChartFX license just to build this legacy project. We are looking at options to be able to Build the project without needing a license key to build it so we can then deploy it to the servers that already have a license for runtime.
We looked for the license.licx file in the existing project but did not find one. We get the following type of build errors unless we install ChartFX. From the thread it sounds like there should be a way to do the build without failing it and run successfully once deployed to the servers.
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error CS0246 The type or namespace name 'SoftwareFX' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) CommonFunctions xxx.cs 8 Active
Error CS0246 The type or namespace name 'ChartFX' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?) CommonFunctions xxx.cs 10 Active
Can licensed and non-licensed developers work on the same code-base ?

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.
