Distributing Your Application

Binaries

HOOPS Exchange and HOOPS Publish share the same binaries folder. Not all binaries are used by both products; therefore, developers who want to minimize the size of their application should only include those items with the functionality they are using.

The following table lists the binaries in the bin folder of the HOOPS Exchange and Publish distribution. All items listed as "Core Logic" must be included with your Exchange application. If you are a HOOPS Exchange developer who also uses HOOPS Publish, you must additionally include the binaries from the HOOPS Publish distribution list.

Linux developers: The bulk of HOOPS Exchange is delivered as a single .so file, libA3DLIBS-<version>.so. Be sure to create a symbolic link named libA3DLIBS.so pointing to libA3DLIBS-<version>.so.
