Deployment of Site Navigation and Layout Controls
- 2 minutes to read
This document describes the assemblies required by web projects that use the functionality of the Site Navigation and Layout controls. Some of the assemblies are essential, while others (which provide additional functionality) can be optionally deployed, depending on your requirements.
Note
If you use other DevExpress components in your project, their use and deployment should comply with the corresponding EULA documents. For more information on licensing and the DevExpress redistribution policy, refer to Redistribution and Deployment.
Depending on the permissions you have set on the production server, and the number of web applications that use the assemblies provided by DevExpress, you can either register the assemblies in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC), or place them in the Bin folder of your application on the target computer. To learn more about web project deployment techniques, see the ASP.NET Deployment Content Map article.
Use our Assembly Deployment Tool to collect the required redistributable DevExpress and custom assemblies automatically to deploy your application. Otherwise, you can deploy the required assemblies manually.
Required Libraries
Below are the essential libraries required by applications that use the Site Navigation and Layout controls.
| Assembly | Description |
|---|---|
| DevExpress.Data.v23.2.dll | Implements the most basic functionality common to all DevExpress controls. This includes classes for data binding, skinning, printing, exporting, as well as many other auxiliary types and resources. |
| DevExpress.Web.v23.2.dll | Contains classes that implement the core functionality of all DevExpress web controls and the functionality of controls from the following components: Data Editors, GridView, Card View, Vertical Grid, Data and Image Navigation, Docking and Popups, Site Navigation and Layout, File Management and Multi-Use Site Controls. |
Optional Libraries
The following libraries provide additional functionality for web projects that use the functionality of the Site Navigation and Layout controls.
DevExpress Themes
If any provided DevExpress Theme is used, the following assembly should also be deployed. This library is considered to be redistributable under the .NET Controls & Frameworks EULA.
Assembly
Description
DevExpress.Web.ASPxThemes.v23.2.dll
Contains classes that implement a set of predefined DevExpress themes for DevExpress web controls. See ASPxThemes Assembly to learn more.
Localization
If you localize Site Navigation and Layout controls using the satellite resource assemblies, you need to deploy the corresponding assemblies. To learn more, see the Localizing ASP.NET Controls via Satellite Resource Assemblies topic.
