Which version of L-studio should I choose?

Three versions of L-studio are available. The first two have the same simulator programs, modeling environments, and example objects, but the ATE version also includes its own C++ compiler used by lpfg. The third version (with VVe) is the same as the ATE version and also includes the simulator VVe.Which version should you download?

  • If you want to use VVe, you will have to install the ATE version with VVe. Otherwise:

  • If you don't already have a C++ compiler installed on your computer (or you don't know what a C++ compiler is!), download the ATE version of L-studio.
  • If you already have Visual C++ installed, you can download either version of L-studio; if you choose the non-ATE version, then be sure to follow the installation instructions to set up L-studio to use Visual C++.
  • If you already have MinGW installed, then you'll have to use the non-ATE version of L-studio, as your installation of MinGW will conflicts with the version included in L-studio ATE. Be sure to follow the installation instructions to set up L-studio to use MinGW.
