...

• The following software is required to develop any component for Aptify 5.5.6: 
  
  • Microsoft Visual Studio
    
    
• Additionally, the following products are required to develop new user interface compo­nents components for the Aptify Desktop client that utilize the Aptify framework: 
  • Infragistics NetAdvantage 2008 Volume 1:
    • You need a license for these Infragistics control if you are creating new Aptify forms within Visual Studio since several Aptify bound controls inherit from Infragistics controls (and when you use the components in Visual Stu­dio, licensing is required for the underlying third party controls).
    • While newer versions of the Infragistics tools may be available, Aptify 5.5 and later uses NetAdvantage® 2008 Volume 1. In order to obtain this software, you may need to purchase the latest version and then contact Infragistics to obtain the 2008 Volume 1 version (and an appropriate installation key for that ver­sionversion). 
    • Note that this requirement only applies to developing new functionality for the Aptify desktop application.
       
  • ComponentOne Studio® for WinForms:
    • Note that this requirement only applies to developing new functionality for the Aptify desktop application.
    • You need a license for this developer tool if you intend to add an Entity List View control to a form you are developing within Visual Studio (since the Entity List View control uses the ComponentOne C1FlexGrid control) or if you are inheriting from one of the Aptify wizard assembly that uses the C1FlexGrid control. Aptify uses the following version of the C1FlexGrid control: 2.6.20073.357 version of the C1FlexGrid control.

    • Aptify also leverages the C1SpellChecker control for the text field spell check functionality. Aptify uses the following version of the C1SpellChecker con­trol: 2.0.20073.5 version of the C1SpellChecker con­trol.

      Note
      title Note
      If you are developing user interfaces using the Aptify Visual Designer environment, you do not need these third party applications. The Visual Designer allows you to modify existing form templates in the system and is the most common way of altering the user interfaces in Aptify. Since when using the Visual Designer you are interacting with Aptify controls within Aptify’s design time environment (and not within the Visual Studio environment), a license to these third party controls is not necessary.

  • The following software is required to write Crystal Reports:
    • SAP Crystal Reports.

    • The 5.5.6 Aptify Desktop client and Aptify web interface use the Crystal Reports 13 (Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010) viewer to display reports. Upgrading Crystal Reports versions for a Crystal Reports writer should not have an impact on Aptify. The reports viewed through Aptify should continue to use the Crystal Reports viewer leveraged by the Aptify interfaces. Existing reports should continue to function as they do today. New reports should still be compatible with the Crystal Reports 13 viewer.
      
      

      Note
      title note
      Aptify distributes the run time libraries from Crystal Reports so that end users can run reports directly from the Aptify Windows Desktop client. However, report writers need a license for the full version of Crystal reports Reports to create and edit reports.

  • The following software is required for Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) Reports:

    • The 5.5.6 Aptify Desktop client and Aptify web Web interface use the Microsoft Report Viewer 2012 viewer to display reports. This software is installed by the Aptify 5.5.6 install program.

...
