Requirements

You can download the required software from Microsoft's download website**.

In order to execute the WPF demos, you must have the .NET Framework 3.0 installed.

In addition, to run the WPF demos you need:

• Visual Studio 2008 (which does not require any addon)

or

• Visual Studio 2005 with the "Visual Studio 2005 extensions for .NET Framework 3.0 (WCF WPF)".

In addition, to re-compile WPF demos you need: 

• "Microsoft® Windows® Software Development Kit Update for Windows Vista"

or

• "Windows SDK for Windows Server 2008 and .NET Framework version 3.5"

Included with LEADTOOLS Imaging SDK. All others are available in LEADTOOLS Imaging Pro, Document, and Medical Imaging SDKs.

At the time of writing this document, there were problems installing the "Visual Studio 2005 extensions for .NET Framework 3.0 (WCF WPF)" if you had Visual Studio 2005 with SP1 installed. In such cases, perform the following steps in order to get the Visual Studio 2005 extensions working:

1. Install the .NET Framework 3.0 (not 3.5!)
2. Install the Visual Studio 2005 extensions for .NET Framework 3.0 (WCF & WPF)
3. Re-install Visual Studio 2005 SP1 (telling the SP1 setup to re-install SP1)
4. You can now install .NET Framework 3.5 (SP1) (optional)

It is possible that future revisions of the .NET framework or the Visual Studio service packs will change this order. Alternatively, you can follow the procedures outlined in the MSDN Forum article, "Visual Studio 2005 WPF Extensions Problem", at Visual Studio 2005 WPF Extensions Problem.
