Command Line Uninstallation
Syncfusion Essential Studio supports uninstalling through Command Line in Silent mode. The following steps illustrate this.
- When you do not have the extracted installer (syncfusionessentialxamarin_(version).exe) then follow the steps from 2 to 7.
- Double-click the Syncfusion Essential Studio platform installer file. The Installer Wizard opens and extracts the package automatically.
- The syncfusionessentialxamarin_(version).exe file is extracted into the Temp folder.
- Run %temp%. The Temp folder will open. The syncfusionessentialxamarin_(version).exe file is available in one of the folders.
- Copy the syncfusionessentialxamarin_(version).exe file in local drive.
- Cancel the Wizard.
Open the Command Prompt in administrator mode and pass the following arguments.
Arguments: “Copied installer file pathsyncfusionessentialxamarin_(version).exe” /uninstall silent
Example: “D:Tempsyncfusionessentialxamarin_x.x.x.x.exe” /uninstall silent
Essential Studio Xamarin is uninstalled.
NOTE
x.x.x.x needs to be replaced with the Essential Studio version installed in your machine.
Explore the libraries package
You can find the Syncfusion libraries, samples and NuGet from the installed location in Windows.
{Essential Studio installed location}SyncfusionEssential Studio{version}Xamarin
“lib” folder - e.g., C:Program Files (x86)SyncfusionEssential Studio16.2.0.41Xamarinlib
It contains all the required libraries for Xamarin.iOS, Xamarin.Android, and Xamarin.Forms projects.
“nuget” folder - e.g., C:UsersPublicDocumentsSyncfusion16.2.0.41Xamarinnuget
It contains the above libraries as NuGet packages. The same NuGet packages also can be configured from online nuget.org.
“sample” folder - e.g., C:UsersPublicDocumentsSyncfusion16.2.0.41Xamarinsample
It contains the sample applications for our controls in Xamarin.iOS, Xamarin.Android, and Xamarin.Forms platforms in iOS, Android, and Forms folders, respectively.
The “Forms” directory includes,
Individual control sample folders: It contains the samples for individual controls such as SfChart, SfDataGrid, etc. Since they represent the individual controls, these samples are light-weighted. You can check the samples for your required controls alone faster with minimum deployment time.
“nuget” folder: It contains the compiled assemblies of the above samples as NuGet package. It is referred in the common sample browser as explained in the next step.
“SampleBrowser” folder: It contains common sample browser, which refers the individual control’s samples as NuGet package. Run this to see the demo samples of all the controls in single application.
It also contains showcase samples such as Patient Monitor, Server Monitor, and Invoice.
Add reference to the project
You can then add the assembly references to the respective projects such as PCL, XForms.Droid, XForms.iOS and XForms.UWP. You can find the dependencies for each control from this link.
IMPORTANT
Xamarin Mac Setup
After adding the reference, currently, an additional step is required for iOS and UWP projects. For example, if we are using SfKanban, we need to call the Init method of SfKanbanRenderer as shown in this KB article.
Xamarin Studio Download
IMPORTANT
Download Xamarin Studio For Windows
For UWP alone, one more additional step is required if the project is built in release mode with .NET Native tool chain enabled. For example, if we are using SfKanban, you can refer the KB article for more details.
