Prepare for ApplinX Installation
*If you are going to install on a Windows system, and you want to develop .NET ApplinX Web applications in Visual Basic or C#, install Microsoft Visual Studio 2012 or 2015 and the Microsoft Visual J# .NET 2.0 Redistributable Package - Second Edition (x64). Microsoft Visual Studio does not have to be running when you install ApplinX.
If you do not install Microsoft Visual Studio, you will not be able to install the ApplinX Visual Studio Add-in component, and the ApplinX .NET Framework component will have limited functionality; you will not be able to develop composite Web applications.
*If you are going to install on a Linux x86_64 system, install the rpm package compat-libstdc++ from your operating system distribution using the vendor instructions.
