Ribbon controls in Delphi
delphi, delphi-2009, licensing, ribbon-control
Solution
To add to the link provided by @splash:
Accepting that license basically means agreeing to stick to the Ribbon (Fluent Interface) guidelines as set out by Microsoft... (see link provided by splash). There are no restrictions on where / in what applications you use the Ribbon controls, or whether those applications are free, shareware, open source, closed commercial or whatever.
Update
As @The_Fox rightly mentions, there is a restriction to the type of application: you cannot use the Ribbon Controls in any application that competes with one of the Microsoft Office products.
Problem
I have used TMS ribbon controls and ribbon controls came with Delphi 2009 in my project. I can remember the Delphi setup warned me about ribbon controls and said me to get license from Microsoft. What is the license and can I distribute this application as a commercial application?
