Desaware - Top Reviews

Add a cryptographic licensing system to your .NET apps. The Desaware Licensing System is a cryptographic based licensing system for .NET. Designed for per server/machine and component licensing, it is extremely easy to use and can be configured for both moderate and high security scenarios. With 128 bit end to end cryptographic licensing, the Desaware Licensing System does not depend on hidden files, registry entries or other invasive techniques.

Write better .NET code in VB .NET, C# and other .NET languages. StateCoder is a .NET class framework that makes it easy to create and support state machines using VB .NET or C#. State machines reflect a design pattern that can result in dramatic code improvements in certain types of applications including reduced costs, improved testability and higher reliability. Typical uses for StateCoder include any multithreaded project, predictive ASP.NET projects, projects that manage asynchronous calls or background operations, projects that implement protocols or data format conversions.

All of Desaware's .NET components, with full source code. Desaware’s Universal .NET is a comprehensive suite of components for .NET solution providers which also contains the source code for the nine individual products included: SpyWorks Professional; StateCoder; NT Service Toolkit .NET; StorageTools; Event Log Toolkit; OneTimeDownload-5M; LineGraph-5M; INIFileTool-5M and File Property Component. Resources include: State machines, event logging, windows and keyboard hooks, and forty-one individual controls and libraries.

Create and manage temporary web links for downloads. OneTimeDownload-5M allows developers to create links to a web site. In using these links, the end user can download software files. These temporary links (URL's ) are active for a limited amount of time, and are often uniquely associated with individual users. The length of time of the link, the number of times the files can be accessed and how many files can be accessed are options defined and controlled when the links are created.

Managed Code INI File Component. INIFileTool-5M makes it easy for you to read and write INI files from your .NET applications or web applications. Not only does it avoid the need for API calls, but more important, it is a 100% managed code solution that does not use API calls, thus is able to run in partial trust scenarios.

Add line and scatter plot graphs to your ASP.NET applications. LineGraph-5M is a Web Custom Control that allows you to add Line and Scatter Plot graphs to your ASP.NET pages. It can create graphs with an absolute minimum of effort, yet contains enough options to allow you to customize its appearance and function to suit varied needs. Numeric data can be plotted on both axis and date/time information can be plotted on the X axis. All types of color and style attributes can be changed.

Provide automated code access security testing. Desaware's CAS/Tester automates the process of testing an assembly (for Code access security) by executing it under multiple security configurations and producing a detailed report of the results. Features: Over 80 tests included, or create your own using VB .NET or C#. Supports testing of class libraries, components, user controls, windows forms applications and console applications.

In this series of eBooks, Dan Appleman offers collections of shorter articles on a variety of .NET topics. Though many were previously published, all have been updated and in many cases expanded for this collection. Most of the articles include both VB.Net and C# sample code.

Create a full featured service in minutes using .NET, even debug your service using the .NET environment. Although the .NET framework supports the creation of simple services, the NT Service Toolkit allows you to create more robust and complex services in minutes. Features include: easy development and debugging, automatic COM/DCOM/Remoting support, advanced thread management, self installing executables and the ability to create control panel applets. Easy migration path from the COM based edition.

In the ideal world, every application and component would be a black box that would work perfectly the first time, and that would fulfill its purpose without any need for human intervention or review. In practice, this ideal is rarely achieved. Real world applications need to be instrumented - meaning that there need to be ways for them to report on how they are working. This may mean producing detailed trace information to determine what the program is actually doing. It may mean logging information so that users can analyze what the program actually did - information that may be essential for measuring performance, for recovering from disaster, for detecting security breaches, and more.
