CodeSmith Generator SDK
The SDK Edition enables distribution of custom applications that use the Generator API (including SchemaExplorer). These applications can make use of the full power of the Generator engine in a programmatic fashion. You will be able to distribute the Generator assemblies with your application and include a runtime SDK license either in your application folder or shared license folder.
