1. Installation (last version is 0.9.9 build 22)

There are two installations of Bee22, as developer version (mid-level Delphi knowledge required) and user version with three deferent configurations for the user to play with. A developer may regard the user configurations as demos.

   1.1. Requirements and installation of developer version

• Embarcadero Delphi XE2 installed (it should work on any later version)
• Steema TeeChart 2011.04.**** installed (it should work on any later version)
• Python 2.7 (or later) installed (optional). Use the installation and help I use, or go http://www.python.org
• Python4Delphi package (free) - download the version I use HERE, or go fetch it on the net.
• Download Bee22dev.zip, unzip it at location of your choosing (mine is G:/bee22) and change the library/search paths to appropriate for your installation. Alternatively, a copy of Bee22 code is on Bee22 GitHub repository.

  1.2. Download the user version of Bee22-> Bee22user.zip, unzip it at location of your choosing and run Bee22.exe or one of three deferent blocks configurations (Bee22*.bat). You can optionally install Python 2.7 (or later), for adding functionality from inside a block script.
Each batch file executes Bee22.exe with different working directory name as parameter (Scans would be the default dir). The working directory has sub-dir Config which has configuration file Blocks.ini, different for each configuration (look for line Active=...).

• basic configuration (Bee22basic.bat): no multi-swarm block
• clubs configuration (Bee22clubs.bat): clubs type of multi-swarm
• bi-swarms configuration (Bee22biswarms.bat): two swarms with separate behaviour defining settings.

2. Uninstallation

  Bee22 does not change any registry or anything outside its directory, so uninstall it means simply delete the Bee22 directory and all its content.

5. How can I help?

  Bee22 framework is open source and free of charge, so if you like it I would appreciate your involvement. Here is how:

• It would be very helpful for the project if you inform me about any further development based on Bee22 you make and/or any applications of Bee22 you implement.
• I would warmly welcome any collaboration with anybody fascinated by PSO the way I'm. Of course any possibility of publication and/or a project with financial support would be even better.
• State your opinion about Bee22 in the social media, or your favourite forum, wherever you consider appropriate. User enthusiasm is so contagious.
