Requirements for VB.NET Image SDK Deployment

Before starting the process of deploying .NET image SDK in VB.NET class application, please make sure your .NET development environment meets the minimum system requirements of this .NET imaging SDK. As RasterEdge DocImage SDK for .NET is developed in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and built in .NET Framework 2.0, you should check whether your VB.NET development platform has installed VS 2005, VS 2008, VS 2010 or VS 2012 and that whether this VB.NET class project is built in .NET Framework 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 or 4.5.

Implement License to Deploy VB.NET Image SDK

The first thing of deploying your VB.NET class application with .NET image SDK is to distribute the developing license. In this part, we will tell you how to get and distribute the trial license key in VB.NET class project.

Evaluation License Activation: You can easily get the trial license key of this .NET image SDK by running the application file RasterEdge.Imaging License Manager.exe. Then a text file that contains the license key will be automatically and instantly generated.
Evaluation License Distribution: You can just copy above mentioned .txt file and place it in the bin folder of your VB.NET project.

Configure ASP.NET Application Using VB.NET Image SDK

In this section, we will guide you to deploy your VB.NET web class application using this .NET document image processing SDK. During this deploying process, you have to make sure the .NET image SDK dlls are located in the bin folder of ASP.NET web application.

Create or open an ASP.NET web class project within Microsoft Visual Studio with VB language;
Download and unzip the trial package of RasterEdge DocImage SDK for .NET;
In the bin folder of above downloaded .NET image SDK, you will find several compact and small-size dlls that contain all the APIs that VB.NET developers requires to process and display document image file;
Copy all those 14 compact dlls from .NET image SDK to the bin folder of your ASP.NET class application and you can also integrate those 14 dlls into your ASP.NET web project by adding reference directly;
Copy your evaluation license key at the same folder of your web project, together with above integrated dlls;
The deployment of this .NET image SDK in your VB.NET web project is finished now.
