AIMTools FAQ
I just downloaded an AIMTools SDK. What's the best way to get started learning how to use it?

Each SDK contains a documentation directory containing helpful information. First, you should read the appropriate QuickStart Guide for your selected development environment. This provides an overview, discusses the architecture, and offers simple to use suggestions for getting started. Next, the PICTools and AIMTools Programmer's Guide is a more comprehensive description of how to use AIMTools. Third, the AIMTools Reference Manual provides specific API information required to successfully code your application. Samples are also included for your review. Reviewing the material in this order will make it easiest to understand, and get you quickly up and running on application coding.

What are the Pause dialogs that are occasionally displayed?

The AIMTools development kits are provided to developers as fully functional evaluation versions. The only difference between the evaluation version of a toolkit and a registered version are registration codes that indicate to the SDK that it is licensed.

When would I use PICTools and when would I use AIMTools?

The PICTools SDKs target application development that will be deployed in the Windows, Linux X86, Sparc Solaris, and AIX environments. The AIMTools SDK targets the iOS and Android development platforms.

How is AIMTools Licensed?

AIMTools require separate licensing for each image format on each platform. For example, jpeg decompression for iOS is priced separately from jpeg decompression for Android. The AIMTools toolkit is in evaluation mode until unlock codes are provided based on the completion of an agreement with an Accusoft sales representative. Applications using AIMTools require a licensing agreement with Accusoft prior to deployment. This requires a discussion with an Accusoft sales representative about your desired use of AIMTools and the specific features for your application deployment.
