Licnesing Issue with VSTA (visual studio tools for applications)

Dear,

My company has plan to change plot controls to ChartFX. (.NET or COM version)

My company's main product is kind of CAE software (based on unmanaged c++),

Making Models, Simulating, and Viewing Results as Plot / Animation etc, and Support VBA or VSTA

(VSTA is next generation of VBA)

With VSTA, users want to make dialogs, add plot controls in dialogs, and customize them.

 

I have some "redistribution license" questions.

1. wrapper issue
If I buy ChartFX for Visual Studio 2005

I saw a runtime license problems such as
Q6101008. Using Chart FX for .NET Windows Forms control from a DLL
Q6101001. How to deploy a WinForms Application when it contains a wrapper object using Chart FX for .NET
Q6101010. How to manually add a Chart FX license to an executable

Is there same license problems if I buy ChartFX Client Server 6.2?


2. VSTA issues

If users want to make/change/customize plot controls in user's dialog,
Which license do I need?
Is there any difference between ChartFX Client Server 6.2 and ChartFX for Visual Studio 2005?

1) All problems you describe have solutions described in the articles.

> Is there same license problems if I buy ChartFX Client Server 6.2?

No. Chart FX Client Server 6.2 is not .NET and therefore follows a different licensing schema. Note that I am talking about the technical aspects of the licensing. If your question is related to the legal uses of it please contact Software FX, sales. This forum is technical in nature.

Yes ChartFX Client Server 6.2 is a COM product and it is based in an older codebase.  ChartFX for Visual Studio 2005 is a .NET product and it is the latest version containing many enhancements to Chart FX 6.2. For more details you may visit our Web site.
