recommendation of IDL for use in commercial app.
type: item
description: We're looking at IDL for use as an adjunct to the software we provide with our spectral imaging camera. Does anyone else have experience using IDL as part of a commercial application? Our base application, for camera control, spectral image formation, visualization and analysis is written in C++ using MFC under Win32s. IDL 4. is supposed to be callable from a Win32 program. Has anyone tried it? Thanks for speaking up if you have any advice. --David Wine wine@actcom.co.il Software Development Manager Spectral Diagnostics, Ltd.

We've done it with data analysis software, and I know there are commercial applications in the medical imaging industry. You must work out a licensing arrangement with RSI, but your customers need not purchase IDL. I suggest you contact RSI with your questions.
