10. Customization

10.1. Multi-Language-Support

EC-Engineer supports multiple languages, which can be changed at runtime. Adding support for further lanuages is quite easy because it is just a simple XML file which must be added to the kit.

All language files are stored in: "%ProgramFiles%/acontis_technologies/EC-Engineer/Languages/...

EC-Engineer has also full UNICODE support, which means that it is also possible to support Asian languages:

10.2. Themes

EC-Engineer supports multiple themes, which can be changed during compile time. Adding support for further themes is quite easy because a theme consists of a couple of XAML files which must be added to the kit.

Five themes are already included into EC-Engineer:

10.3. Integration into 3rd-Party Applications

The software architecture of EC-Engineer is keept very modular:

This allows us adjust to customer needs and to integrate it into nearly every customer engineering environment. We can integrate the complete product or only parts of it, like:

View-Layer

Only changes on XAML-level needed, only a few changes are necessary to get your own look and feel

ViewModel-Layer

For a customer which has already his own GUI or wants to be very flexible

Core-Layer

  • Used with CoreDemo as a commandline tool

  • Used directly as library by adding the C# assembly as reference to the exisiting project

EniEngine-Layer

  • Used with EniBuilder as a commandline tool

  • Used directly as library by adding the C# assembly as reference to the exisiting project

If you are interested in integrating the product or parts of the product into your existing framework, please contact us.
