Tutorial

This tutorial explains how to construct the Basic Example. We will cover every step and explain why and when you should use a particular construct. The example uses C# as programming language, but the C++ and Java versions are very similar.

Before starting this tutorial, make sure you adjusted your application project/environment for using the SDK, see Getting Started.
