How to obtain ArciMath BigDecimal

Versions

We make two versions of ArciMath BigDecimal available. The Production Version should be what all professional users work with. We grant free licenses to the Evaluation Version of ArciMath BigDecimal for private users, for software development, for software ('shareware' type) distribution sites, and for a free 30-day evaluation period for professional users, under the conditions described in the License Agreement.

The Evaluation Version of ArciMath BigDecimal is fully functional, has no time limits or other restrictions, and is fully compatible with the Production Version. There are only 3 differences:

Your use of the Evaluation Version is restricted by the license agreement, that you have to accept before using ArciMath BigDecimal.
The Production Version is on average 10 to 50% faster than the Evaluation Version (see the benchmarks).

ArciMath BigDecimal objects serialized by the Evaluation Version cannot be restored using the Production Version, and vice versa. You will get an Exception like

java.io.InvalidClassException: be.arci.math.BigDecimal; Local class not compatible:
stream classdesc serialVersionUID=2533501154602368578
local class serialVersionUID=2533501154602368580
  at java.io.ObjectStreamClass.setClass(Compiled Code)

Software developed under the free ArciMath BigDecimal Development License can be freely distributed, with some restrictions, with the Evaluation Version of ArciMath BigDecimal, granting the end-user a free 30-day evaluation period. This way shareware developers don't have to invest money if they want to use ArciMath BigDecimal. If you prefer to distribute your software with the Production Version of ArciMath BigDecimal, so that your users don't have to pay us a fee, you can purchase a Redistribution License. We also have Single User and Concurrent User Licenses. Read the License Agreement or the License Options summary for more details on the different license types.
