Is the entire support for language parser a separate component from Silverlight?
I'm more precise: if I acquire a Silverlight parser, can I parse source code directly in ASP.NET (host project) or in Silverlight project only?
Is there any licence for parser component?
I'd like to acquire Silverlight licence, but also using parsing technology without Silverlight.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Marco,
The Silverlight SyntaxEditor is based on the Silverlight runtime so unfortunately it can only be used from within a Silverlight project.
That being said, you could also get a license for the WPF SyntaxEditor since it has nearly the same object model but is .NET based. So if you only use the Actipro Text and any other Text.* assemblies, those don't have any dependencies on WPF itself and could easily be used in any .NET-based project. The other SyntaxEditor-related assemblies do have dependencies on WPF. But at least the parser piece of the WPF version could be used in ASP.NET and could share source code with the Silverlight project's implementation.
Ok, so:
Hi Marco,
1) Not yet but for the 2012.1 version, we're probably going to start selling individual Silverlight controls in addition to the bundle.
2) Sorry not at this time but if you are buying WPF and Silverlight controls, we can work out a special discount for you. Please contact our sales email address if that is the case.
3) The parser portion is only included in the SyntaxEditor control license, not standalone.
Hi Marco,
With today's 2012.1 version release, you now can purchase the Silverlight SyntaxEditor standalone.
