DWB_Developer_Instructions

Software developers are invited to use the source code of the DWB to set up their own software applications, e. g. for domain-specific purposes. They are encouraged to start cooperative projects with the DWB developer team and use the DWB code repositories to archive their code.

First, we recommend to study the DWB terminology and programming philosophy in several steps:

  • Install 3-4 of the DWB databases and rich clients on your desktop or MS server engine, e. g. DiversityAgents, DiversityProjects, DiversityCollection and DiversityDescriptions. You need, e. g. Windows 7 (with .Net already included).,
  • Contact the SNSB IT Center to get an account for a DWB training environment with test data.
  • Install 2012 SQL Server Express and MS VisualStudio 2010 (upwards) Express, which are free of charge. For ambitious projects we recommend 2012 SQL Server Developer and MS VisualStudio Professional. If you work at a university the licences costs you around 100 Euro.
