I see a dependency on a ArrayEx.dll by Hewlett-Packard.

I also see a ArrayEx class in the project.

Is it possible to remove the ArrayEx.dll dependency? I am not sure about the licensing implications of the HP dll. I would prefer to keep things simple.

    Hi Anthony,
    ArrayEx.dll was a module I wrote severall years earlier for another project, decided to use it for ZintNet. It has nothing to do with HP other than the computer I wrote the code on was a HP with the computer name Hewlett-Packard, in which Visual Studio picks as the default developers name. In saying all this, I should update this old module , though I have been tossing up to re-write some of the code and do away with this dll altogether.
    The ArrayEx.cs is in the code repository but not used in the project (don't know how to remove it so left it there) Only the .dll is currently being used.
    Hope this clears things up and thanks for bringing this to my attention... Milton

    Hello Milton,

    I am still a bit confused. The ArrayEx.dll included in the project has a copyright of "Copyright © Hewlett-Packard 2017" Are you saying that you wrote that module?

    I realized that the ArrayEx.cs in the project was not used. I was hoping that it was your attempt to remove that dependency.

    Hello Anthony, Yes the module is mine. I have update the assembley attributes and re compiled the dll. It now has the correct copyright info etc for the dll. I have uploaded it, so you download it and update your source.
    Regards Milton
