Developers

Arc en Ciel specialises in providing support for integrators. Many software houses and web designers plug our components into their solutions. This is completely seamless: at no time does our name appear. To the user it all looks like your code.

We provide parallel versions of our libraries as a DLL for C++ or Delphi users; a COM object for Visual Basic or ASP use; a Class Library for .NET and ASPX applications; a Java library and a PHP library.

Our software is free and a Development kit to get you started can be downloaded from this page.

In essence we charge for the data, but a subset of the Cambridge area data is provided at no cost to allow you to develop and test your application. You will also find a Help file and code snippets in many languages. Ring our Technical Help desk if you want to discuss the best way to go about integration. We have many years experience in many languages and systems and can usually put you on the right track.

You provide front-line support to your clients and we support you. There is no extra charge for support – it is included in your purchase.

We give generous discounts to integrators, contact us if you would like to discuss this.

The same software is used for both premise-level and road-level solutions. The software detects the presence or absence of certain data files and adjusts itself accordingly.
