Your unique solutions. Distributed easily.

Software developers around the world and across disciplines use IDL to create and distribute dynamic data visualization and analysis solutions. As a software developer – or as an end-user of IDL-based products – you need a reliable, no cost way to distribute code applets, or even entire IDL applications, to colleagues and customers.

IDL Virtual Machine™ (IDL VM™) is a free IDL runtime utility available with IDL It provides a simple way to distribute compiled IDL code without incurring additional licensing requirements or fees.

The IDL Virtual Machine is included in the IDL CD and web download distributions. It is available for all IDL supported platforms, including Windows, Linux, Mac and Unix operating systems. Because IDL code is platform portable, and users can write applications once and deploy their application and user interface code across multiple computing environments.

Example-driven solution

The IDL VM can be used for both commercial and non-commercial applications. In cases when a developer does not wish the IDL VM splash screen to appear, when IDL is tightly integrated with other software applications or software environments, or when a developer wishes to license an application to customers with the IDL environment, ITT offers additional distribution models and licensing options tailored to the needs of the software developer.
