FREE .Net Controls


Question

Hi OOP Mateys,

I thought it would be a good idea to start a thread that contains locations to FREE .Net controls, so I'll start the ball rolling with the new Power Pack I just found !

The VB.Net Power Pack over at Microsoft is a free download containing 7 new controls including Blending Panels and Notification Windows.

Link : VB.Net Power Pack

The Power Pack can also be used in C# !

They are a great addition to your .Net toolbox and they are free !

Enjoy ! :D

Hey Guys,

Lets resurect this thread now that Visual Studio Express 2008 has been released, has anyone got any new controls they want to add.

Large

I released an open source SplitButton control a while ago. It's written in C#:

SplitButton in C#

Also, I don't recall ever seeing this posted, but here's a good open source FTP library (also written in c#):

Silly question, but I guess here is the best place to ask it...do these .NET controls work with the Express Editions of Visual Studio (2008 in particular) or are they locked to the paid for editions?

Hi Xerxes, they are not limited to any paid versions of Visual Studio because they are open source controls which can be freely used in any place without giving credit to me (of course it's nice if there's my name in credits but don't have to)

Project now contains some new controls:

Cloud ProgressBar

Cloud ButtonList (not quite finished but working)

Not sure if this has been posted before, but Microsoft have an awesome Chart control as a FREE download for ASP.Net / Winforms.

It is easily as good as the Commerical stuff if not better.

How about a free IDE with a ton of free add-ons?

 

Visual Studio 2015 Community RC is available today - it does everything VS 2013 Community does, and some things it can't.  Better yet, the cost is STILL zero.

The last reply was months ago, but perhaps you like this free controls with a Community License:

https://www.syncfusion.com/products/communitylicense

I am using it with VS 2015 and you can also build commercial applications.

:yes:

 

  Quote

Who is eligible?

Individual developers or up to five users at companies with annual gross revenue below $1 million USD.

Can the products be used to build commercial applications?

Yes.

How long are the licenses valid ?

The community licenses do not expire. You will continue to receive support and updates for new versions.

---------------------------

In case anyone wants to complain, my vote is that Necro Posting is just fine if it provides useful information.

I have never used this product but the offer mirrors the VS2015 license and is a legitimate (i.e. it is not spam) notice.

Thanks for the link.

    • PNY's DUO LINK V3 promises truly incredible speed for a USB flash drive by Sayan Sen PNY today announced a new USB flash drive that blends modern design with high performance. The new DUO LINK™ V3 supports USB 3.2 Gen 2 and offers both Type-C and Type-A connectors. Housed in a metal shell with a matte black finish, the device is built for users who need reliable results when transferring and storing files. The drive is available in multiple storage sizes ranging from 256GB, all the way up to 2TB. According to PNY, the DUO LINK V3 is engineered to deliver read speeds of up to 1,000 MB/s and write speeds of up to 800 MB/s. These speeds are significantly higher than those achieved by standard USB 2.0 flash drives, allowing users to move large files. The product reminds us of the "Poxiao" flash memory we recently covered, which promises even more incredible speeds. The DUO LINK V3 flash drive’s design uses the common swivel mechanism with dual connectors. One side of the device features a USB Type-C connector, while the other side has a USB Type-A connector. This dual-connector system is intended to maximize compatibility, making the DUO LINK V3 useful across a broad range of devices, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and desktop computers. Thus, in practical terms, users can easily manage files between newer mobile devices and traditional computers without needing extra adapters. Durability and ease of use are emphasized by the metal housing, which is designed to protect the drive during everyday handling. A built-in key loop further supports portability, an important factor for professionals who need to carry important data with them. The device also maintains backward compatibility with older USB standards such as USB 3.2 Gen 1, USB 3.0, and USB 2.0, ensuring that users will find it adaptable to many existing systems. The DUO LINK V3 flash drive is now available directly from PNY and through selected online marketplaces like Amazon. The pricing starts at $34.99 for the 256GB version and reaches $159.99 for the 2TB version. This release provides users with a tool that meets the growing demands of data-intensive work while remaining accessible to those needing a reliable and versatile storage solution.

    • I mean they have been proven to be safer than human drivers in many cases so at the end of the day they will be allowed on the road, the fact that you don't trust them doesn't mean that policy has to be changed to make you more comfortable I am afraid.
    • This 4TB Gen4 2280 NVMe SSD is selling for just $200 with promo coupon by Sayan Sen We reported yesterday about the WD_BLACK SN8100 (PCIe Gen5) and SN7100 (PCIe Gen4) deals as they are both priced the lowest. There is also a free VPN on offer. You can check those deals out here. If you do not quite have the budget for those drives but still want a relatively fast drive in 4TB, then Team Group is offering its T-FORCE G50 model at a great price of just $200 with a coupon code (purchase link down below). Like the SN8100 and SN7100 WD SKUs, the Team Group G50 is also a TLC (triple level cell) NAND flash SSD, and thus the endurance on the T-FORCE SSD is quite good, as it is rated for 2600 TBW (terabytes written). Its MTBF, or Mean Time Between Failure, is claimed at 3,000,000 hours. However, unlike the WD_BLACK models, the G50 does not have a dedicated DRAM cache (only the G50 Pro SKUs have it) but it is based on NVMe version 1.4 which supports HMB (host memory buffer) technology; thus, the drive can use system memory for caching. In terms of performance, Team Group promises sequential read and write speeds of up to 5000 MB/s and 4500 MB/s, respectively. However, the firm does not disclose random throughput metrics. Essentially, compared to the WD_BLACK SN7100 linked above, you miss out on faster speeds, but you are also paying less with this. Either of these drives can be a great choice depending on your budget. Get the Team Group SSD at the link below: Team Group T-FORCE G50 M.2 2280 4TB PCIe 4.0 x4 - TM8FFE004T0C129: $219.99 + $20 off with promo code SUMET9324, limited offer => $199.99 (Shipped and Sold by Newegg US) This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.
