Sorry, I think I misunderstood what you were asking. Yes, it's a shareware component, and yes, testers get the full HDSoft package; that means full source code (Win32 C++, non-MFC) is included, plus projects for VS2008, VS2010, and (maybe) VS6. The beta is distributed on the same basis as other HDSoft components - testers can compile the component into their products, but may not distribute the source code. Please ask here if you have more questions, or send email.
Best wishes, Hans
