Installation on both VS2008 and VS2010

Hello Steema

I have successfully installed my TeeChart 2012 on my VS2010 (after finding issues regarding the .NET framework client profile vs. non-client profile)
I do have following question:
I have both VS 2008 and VS2010 installed on my machine (of course not running concurrently)

1:
During installation og TeeChart 2012, I had the possibility to select whether it is VS2010 (selected) or VS2008 it should be installed onto.
Is it possible to have TeeChart on both VS2010 AND VS2008 - and at the same license? If so, shall I run the setup again, and now select VS2008 ?

2:
Can TeeChart support .NET Compact Framework (on WindowsCE ver. 6 - Smart devices)? If not, do you have a TeeChart product for this?

Regards
Anders

I recommend you use custom isntallation, where you can get specifics assemblies for the .Net Framework you are using. You can do it following next steps:

1.- Run the .exe
2.- Add your number of license and your password.
3.- Choose the version you are want or Let me choose the components.
4.- If you choose the option Let me choose the components select all.
Can TeeChart support .NET Compact Framework (on WindowsCE ver. 6 - Smart devices)? If not, do you have a TeeChart product for this?
Yes, TeeChartFor.Net support .Net Compact Framework, please take a look in the TeeChartFor.Net product page to get more information about it.

I hope will helps.
Thanks,

This sounds very good
I now have VS2008 + VS2010 TeeChart TeeChart installed successfully.

The Issue with the Compact Framework (.NETCF 3.5) on WinCE(6.0) is a little bit more difficult.
- It appears that the product I already have (TeeChart Pro 2012 .NET) supports this option - or is it a separate product I need to buy?
If not - which assembly (.dll) do I need to choose in the components palette (The TeeChart palette is not visible when I create a "SmartDevice" project)

Hello Anders,
If not - which assembly (.dll)
The assembly you need is TeeChart.Pocket.dll that is included in TeeChartFor.Net installer. On the other hand, you need know to make your applications in CF you only must add TeeChart.Pocket.dll in your reference folder of some IDE VS2003, VS2005 and VS2008, but if you want work with VS2010 you not be able to create SmartDavice, so it doesn't upport Pocket Pc.
I need to choose in the components palette (The TeeChart palette is not visible when I create a "SmartDevice" project)
TeeChart.Pocket.dll is only available at run-time in Visual Studio 2005 and Visual Studio 2008. In VS2003 it is available at design-time as well, therefore if you want work in design-time you need work in VS2003 and if you want work in Visual Studio 2008 you must add the Chart in run time as do in next simple code I have made:

Code: Select all

public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            InitializeChart();
        }
        Steema.TeeChart.Pocket.TChart m_Chart;
        private void InitializeChart()
        {
            m_Chart = new TChart();
            this.Controls.Add(m_Chart);
            BackColor = Color.Orange;
            m_Chart.Width = 200;
            m_Chart.Height = 200;
            m_Chart.Panel.MarginLeft = 10;
            m_Chart.Left = 50;
            m_Chart.Top = 50;      
            
            Bar bar = new Bar(m_Chart.Chart);
            bar.FillSampleValues();
        }
I hope will helps.

Thanks,
