Handling multiple custom menu bars (VEE.MNU)
If you use a custom VEE.MNU, such as the one shipped with DT-VEE, the install program may overwrite it.
Contact technical support (203.483.8815) for information on handling multiple custom menu bars.
Example programs are added to the VEE installation directory. The CYDAS UDR Library sample VEE
programs have a .VEE extension. For a list of sample programs, refer to the "Example Programs" chart in
Chapter 1, "Functional Overview," of the CYDAS UDR Library Function Reference, available on our
website, on this software CD, and C:\MCC\Documents (by default) after software is installed.
Licensing information
Each original copy of CYDAS UDR Library is licensed for development use on one CPU at a time. It is theft
to make copies of this program for simultaneous program development.
Redistributing a custom UDR Library application
The easiest way to distribute an application written with the CYDAS UDR Library is to include a copy of
CyberResearch's InstaCal installation package with the application. Instruct the end user to install InstaCal
before installing the application.
Some developers may want to integrate the installation of the required CYDAS UDR Library drivers into the
custom application's installation. This should only be attempted by developers experienced in installation
development.
Following is an overview of the two methods.
Distributing InstaCal in addition to your custom UDR Library application
If you create an application using the CYDAS UDR Library, you may distribute the necessary runtime files
(CYDAS UDR Library driver files) with the application royalty free. These files can be installed from
CyberResearch's InstaCal installation package. To distribute a custom UDR Library application, provide the
end user with two CDs or disks:
One CD or disk that contains CyberResearch's InstaCal application. InstaCal must be installed before the
custom UDR Library application.
One CD or disk that contains the setup program for their custom VB or C++ application.
You may not distribute any files that give the end user the ability to develop applications using the CYDAS
UDR Library.
Integrating InstaCal into your custom UDR Library installation CD or disk
For developers who wish to distribute their application on one CD, refer to the CYDAS UDR Library
Redistribution Guide. This document contains procedures to merge the setup programs for both InstaCal and
the custom UDR Library application into one setup program that you can distribute on one CD or disk. The
merging process is complicated — only experienced programmers should attempt to do this.
When you install the software, the CYDAS UDR Library Redistribution Guide (ULRedist.pdf) is copied to the
default installation directory "C:\MCC\Documents" on your local drive.
