Since the Community edition is part of the Nevron Chart control, it also relies on licenses (free of charge). They are providing 3 types of licenses –
- Desktop (required for redistribution of your compiled desktop app),
- Developer (for your development machine) and
- Server (required for web application deployment)
You can acquire the free license by following these steps:
1. Register a Nevron.com account and activate it
2. Download the Nevron Vision for .NET installation. They are providing 5 separate installations for the different versions of Visual Studio and the .NET Framework
3. Once you install the Vision suite on your development machine, run the Nevron License Key Manager and obtain the machine ID (located in the key manager window title)
4. Send them your development machine ID via email
Nevron will reply back once the account is updated and the corresponding licenses are available.
I think overall if you are a developer who needs a free chart control for your .NET apps, this is as good as it gets. Get your free license here
It is extremely confusing to register for a license. I gave up midway.
ReplyDeleteI second that. I did manage to register and downloaded a 220 MB dotnetvision2014Vol1VS2012.exe for Vs 2012. but on running the setup it asked me to install .NET fw 2.0. I already have .NET 4.5 on my machine so why would I install 2.0 when the installer says it is for VS 2012 with .NET 4.5?
