Redistribution and Deployment

  • 2 minutes to read

Certain DevExpress libraries are considered redistributable under the End User License Agreement (EULA) and can be distributed to users of your applications. You must have a valid license to legally distribute DevExpress-powered apps.

.NET and NuGet Packages

In Visual Studio, you can use DevExpress NuGet packages to add DevExpress assemblies to your application. Refer to the following section for complete step-by-step guides: Install DevExpress Controls Using NuGet Packages

If you want to publish WPF applications that target .NET, refer to the following section for more information: Deploy .NET Applications.

Redistributable Assemblies

Important

Please refer to the following page for an up-to-date list of redistributable assemblies, tools, and executables: DevExpress End User License Agreement.

When you deploy a WPF project that uses DevExpress WPF controls, you should copy corresponding DevExpress assembly files to a user’s PC.

Use the DevExpress Assembly Deployment Tool to analyze your WPF solution and get the list of assemblies to deploy.

  • All tools in the C:\Program Files\DevExpress 24.2\Components\Bin\Framework\ folder, except for those explicitly listed in the EULA.
