General Information

Many companies are only interested in writing CD-R applications to archive files from a harddrive, which is why we created the much more affordable LITE version. Both versions support the same CDROM devices and include freely distributable ASPI drivers.

The library will work with any standard C++ compiler/linker that is compatible with Microsoft Visual C++ or Borland C++ Builder. Both 16-bit and 32-bit versions are included for developing DOS and Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP applications. The library is currently shipped as a static library (although a DLL may be offered in the future).

Updates to the library are free for one year (updates are mailed to all current customers approximately every three months).

To purchase any version of our library, you may be required to sign a licensing agreement.
