Tutorial |
Description |
Automatic Builds |
The purpose of this tutorial is to demonstrate how CASL can be scripted to automatically build projects for multiple ESD's (Electronic-Sales-Distribution). ESD's such as PalmGear, Handango, PocketGear, etc. require custom versions of your applications to identify where the customer should purchase your products. |
CASL HTTP
Tutorial |
In this tutorial we will
demonstrate how CASL can be used to
create advanced networking applications
to send and receive data across a
network. The protocol demonstrated in
this example is HTTP. In addition, a
complete sample application is provided
that will allow you to quickly and
easily integrate this functionality
directly into your own CASL
applications. |
Advanced CASL Installers |
This tutorial demonstrates how
InnoSetup
can be used to enhance and customize CASL 4.3 application installers. This tutorial is best-suited for PocketPC / Windows Mobile installers. |
How To: Lock your CASL Applications |
Creating applications in CASL isn't that difficult. However, how you productize your CASL applications is equally important. This tutorial covers some pointers to assist CASL developers looking for ways to secure their hard work. |

Promoting your CASL
Software
Some CASL developers have asked if there are
ways that they can help promote their business/products that
were created with CASL. There are a few tools that we use a
couple times a month to help increase awareness of our own
products. These are tools that we feel are valuable and may
be useful to CASL Developers. If you are interested in
submitting your product to hundreds of websites (a huge time
saver) or submitting your website URL to thousands of search
engines, please try the products located at the
CASL Developer Deals
page.
Selling Your CASL Applications
There are a number of sites that will sell your applications.
Sites such as
Handango,
PalmGear,
PocketGear and a
number of others will allow you to set your product price but will deduct a
percentage of the product sale.
