restriction regarding sales of custom control

[R.A.F.]

Hi,

I'm coming from MS competitor world ... Borland to not named it
under their platform, if you develop you own control, they tell you to
split your control between the design time and the runtime parts.

They say we can not redistribute the design time part as usually it
needs their libs and this we can not sell into our custom control.

I would like to know if something like that exist under C# 2005/2008 ?

if yes, what are the restriction exactly, because i would like to sell
in the future my own .NET controls.

thanks a lot,

RAF

RAF,

If it is your control, and you write the code for it, then I don't see
why you can't distribute the design time aspects of your control. With
..NET, if you develop your control, and design time helpers for it, you can
distribute it as you wish.
