There are 3 options to get ICS source code:
+
[[ICS_Download | Getting ICS source code, SVN and OpenSSL files]]
:# From the partner DVD you get from CodeGear when buying Delphi or C++ Builder
 
:# From [http://www.overbyte.be/eng/products/ics.html OverByte website]
 
:# From version control repository
 
  
Using the partner DVD from CodeGear is probably not such a good idea, since it is likely to be an old version, built at the time this Delphi / C++Builder version was pushed to the marked.
+
[[ICS_V8.58 | ICS 8.58 Release Notes]]
  
Using [http://www.overbyte.be/en/products/ics.html OverByte's website] you'll get the latest stable release or beta. That's a good choice.
+
[[ICS_V8.50 | ICS 8.50 Release Notes]]
 
 
Using version control repository is the best choice if you want to have the very latest source code. OverByte uses a SubVersion server and you need to use a subversion client such as [http://tortoisesvn.net TortoiseSVN] or your favorite browser. Once your SVN client is installed, for ICS-V6 you can browse to svn://svn.overbyte.be/ics or http://svn.overbyte.be:8443/svn/ics or for ICS-V5 to: svn://svn.overbyte.be/icsv5 or http://svn.overbyte.be:8443/svn/icsv5. ICS-V7 is a part of V6, in ics/branches/icsv7. All use usercode = ics and password = ics for read access. Write access is only available to TeamICS.
