9.5. Sketch Exportation

The way in that DotNetProcessing modules are designed makes very easy the process of exporting the sketch to one of its three options (executable, web and user control). When the user builds a sketch, internally, in the Parsing module the program generates a .NET user control containing the sketch. After this, exporting the sketch to .NET user control is as easy as copying the resulting dll to a specified folder. In case of web, the same dll is deployed along with an html file that uses it. Then both files have to be hosted in a web server to complete the process. In case of executable the Canvas module (which resulting type is of executable) is deployed. But in fact, it is just a container of the .NET user control. It is also the file that is executed when the user runs the sketch in the Environment.
