Non-Redistributable Libraries

Some DevExpress libraries are considered non-redistributable, and their deployment is strictly prohibited according to the End-User License Agreement (EULA).

These libraries include all DevExpress design-time assemblies that have the “.Design“ postfix in their names, for example:

• DevExpress.XtraReports.v23.2.Design.dll
• DevExpress.XtraEditors.v23.2.Design.dll
• DevExpress.XtraPrinting.v23.2.Design.dll
