ArcGIS Runtime does operate under a different license model than ArcGIS Engine. Based on experience with ArcGIS Engine licensing, the size of ArcGIS Runtime deployment packs were optimized for overall customer need and designed to be more cost effective. A vast majority of ArcGIS Runtime developers are building production apps for multiple\many users. Also keep in mind that ArcGIS Engine deployment licenses can be sold by the developer or purchased directly by the end user to use with multiple Engine apps on a device. ArcGIS Runtime deployment licenses are sold by Esri only to the developer who then distributes the licensed app to the end user. Runtime apps are licensed per app, per device. Again, this difference\change was deemed most efficient and cost effective. In addition to purchasing deployment licenses in packs, ArcGIS Runtime does offer the option to license individual users via an ArcGIS Online Developer Plan (https://developers.arcgis.com/en/plans/). All plans come with one user (Named User) that can login to ArcGIS Online for use with ArcGIS Runtime. To deploy apps for production you can purchase an ArcGIS Online Developer Plan for $20/month or more. The Named User credentials associated with the plan cannot be shared with other individuals, whether actual credentials or baked into an app. Granted, this does require a monthly login to ArcGIS Online to refresh the ArcGIS Runtime license (standard level). If that is undesirable, then purchasing a deployment license as part of a pack would be the only option. Hope this helps, -Rex

Also keep in mind that each deployment is a single use license - per app, per device. Concurrent use licenses are not available and there is no distinction between an internal (eg enterprise) or external (eg public) app.

Hi Simon, We intend to certify the next release (version 10.2.6) of the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET for use developing apps on Windows 10 that target .NET 4.5+ (Desktop), Store 8.1, and Phone 8.1. A Windows Store app that targets 8.1 will work on a device running Windows 10. Version 10.2.6 of the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET will be made available in the coming weeks. With respect to building Windows Universal apps for Windows 10 using Visual Studio 2015, we would like to support use of the Windows Store API included in 10.2.6. According to Microsoft an extension SDK that targets 8.1 can be used in a Windows 10 Universal app. However, due to some technical changes between Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, we may not be able to support this combination. We will have more information when the commercial release of Windows 10 is made available at the end of July. Thanks -Rex

We'll provide an update to the release schedule shortly. Thanks, -Rex

Hi Arne, We are actively working on the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Xamarin for release with the next generation of Runtime products (Quartz release). Keep an eye on this blog post for additional details: ArcGIS Runtime and Xamarin – Part 2 | ArcGIS Blog Thanks -Rex

Hi Ben, I've reproduced the problem and logged as an issue. It appears to occur when lines share a vertex and have the same label value. Forked repo with some updates to illustrate: rexhansen/LabellingIssue · GitHub Thanks -Rex

While it is technically possible to use the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET (Desktop) on the server, deployment in this capacity currently violates the product license (http://www.esri.com/legal/pdfs/mla_e204_e300/english). See the Scope of Use: Exhibit 1, Addendum 1, Section 2, Note 19. Can you provide one or scenarios where you would like to use the Runtime SDK for .NET in this capacity? Thanks -Rex

We have seen this issue before, but reproducing it has been elusive. Keith, you mentioned trying to create a sample app but were not able to repro. If you guys are able to provide a sample app to reproduce at some point in the future, please share. Thanks -Rex

You'll need to use local server to open\use MPKs, which requires a standard license. Access to TPKs requires a basic license. "Runtime content" encompasses many types of content. Access to runtime geodatabases (read-only) requires a basic license. Other types of runtime content such a networks and locators require a standard license. Editable runtime geodatabases, which must be generated from a sync enabled feature service (for now), require a standard license to edit. See the following page for more details on license levels and functionality: License your app—ArcGIS Runtime SDK for .NET | ArcGIS for Developers

Standard licenses purchased from Esri should be distributed\counted per deployment. For example, an ArcGIS Runtime app installed on a single device (eg PC) used by 5 different people would only count as one deployment. If a different ArcGIS Runtime app was installed on the same device, it would count as another deployment. Note, you are responsible for monitoring the number of deployments and purchasing the number of licenses to accommodate. In general, when you purchase a standard license (usually in a pack of deployments) you will be provided with a unique license string (ie code). You can use the same license string in all deployments. You do not need a unique license string for each deployment. Hope this helps, -Rex

Yes, we're considering support for reprojection of local datasets, including shapefiles. However we don't have a timeline yet for when that feature will be included.

No, you can install them side-by-side. On the Beta Community for the ArcGIS Runtime SDK 10.2.3 for .NET, look under the Documentation section for a summary and complete list of changes between 10.2.3 and 10.2.4.

Take a look at this sample: arcgis-runtime-samples-dotnet/TokenSecuredServices.xaml.cs at master · Esri/arcgis-runtime-samples-dotnet · GitHub

If using the Desktop API in the Runtime SDK for .NET, you may want to consider using local server. You can use a map package to spin up a local map service, then leverage dynamic layers to add data on the fly. Shapefiles added to a local map service in this fashion would be reprojected on the fly (just like they are when using a remote server aka ArcGIS Server), but it would increase the complexity and size of your app deployment. Here's a sample: arcgis-runtime-samples-dotnet/DynamicLayerAddData.xaml at master · Esri/arcgis-runtime-samples-dotnet · GitHub

This is an issue in how the runtime geodatabase is generated in ArcMap 10.2.2. It is fixed in ArcMap 10.3 due to be released later this year. For reference, the Nimbus issue is NIM104323.
