The ClearImage SDK or PDK Version Activation, lets you select which version will provide the ClearImage functionality. The activation process:
Registers 32-bit COM components of ClearImage
Registers 64-bit COM components of ClearImage on the 64-bit version of Windows.
Installs ClearImageNet assembly in GAC
Click the Activate Production Version button to activate one of the installed ClearImage PDK versions. If none of PDKs is installed this button is not visible.
Click the Activate Development Version button to activate one of the installed ClearImage SDK versions. If none of SDKs is installed this button is not visible.
Activated version is displayed in this tab and is globally available to all ClearImage-based applications.
However, if you are using registration-free COM, explained here, then any version of ClearImage can be used by properly configured application.
By default, ClearImageNet-based applications use version installed in GAC. To use a version located in the local application directory click the Remove from GAC button, available when assembly is installed in GAC.
To re-install ClearImageNet in GAC click the Install in GAC button or activate one of the installed versions.
Note: Installer of ClearImage PDK automatically activates the version being installed.
Installer of ClearImage SDK activates the version being installed only if no Production version is active at the time of installation.
