Notes

1. Each Chapter link produces a Zip archive containing all the C# source code and binary executables for the examples in that specific chapter. The files can be extracted with almost any unzip utility.
2. Views library downloads
   • The Views installation link downloads a Zip archive containing an executable install program. Running this program will effectively make the Views library available to all programs that link to it.
   • The Views source links produces a Zip archive containing the source files for the Views library, as well as batch files for compiling the source into DLL and .NET module files.
     You do not need to download this archive if you instead download and use the install program.
3. From Chapter 5 onwards many of the examples make use of the Views library. In order to successfully compile and run the examples from these chapters you will need to install the library as described above.
4. More information about the Views library can be found on this page.
5. A brief synopsis of the commands needed to compile a C# program with Views and run the program on Windows is on this page.
6. If you wish to use Views with the Visual Studio interactive development environment, instructions may be found by visiting this webpage, or by printing the Instructions document listed below.

• Views installation program 367KB -- installs version 1.28.

  Note: If you had a previous version of Views (1.25 or lower) installed you must make sure you run the uninstall.bat script from the Views1.xx program folder. The installer for versions 1.26 and later has been entirely remade, and it is important that you remove old versions before installing any newer release. Removing Views 1.26 and higher will be done from Add/remove programs in control panel, just like for most Windows applications.

  Note 2: It is recommended that you choose to install for 'everyone', not 'just me' (which is the default), if you have administrative rights on the machine you are installing to.

• Views source 33KB (version 1.28)
  (Note: you do not need to download the Views source code; the Views installation program is all you need. The source code is made available to developers under the Gnu lesser public licence.)
• Instructions for using Views with Visual Studio (PDF) 176KB
• All the examples in one file 371KB
• .NET Framework downloads
