Source code

The Gekko source code can be downloaded from here. Please note that the source code is open source under the GNU GPL licence. This means among other things that the source code cannot be used for commercial applications, and can only be used or modified in other open source projects.

The source code related to Gekko version 1.4 (patch #8), i.e. Gekko 1.4.8, can also be downloaded from sourceforge.net.

Below you can what is written about the state of the source code in the introductory Word document:

"At the moment, the current Gekko version (1.4 patch #8) is not particularly well-documented as regards source code, even though the source code does contain a large number of comments. In the longer run it is the intention to make the source code documentation much more comprehensible, easing its accessibility and extensibility. After all, Gekko is open-source, and should therefore have proper source code technical documentation, architecture documentation, and an API.

This document is trying to mitigate the problem of missing source code documention a little bit, providing an overview concerning the general structure of the source code, and the most important files/classes etc. To some extent, the document should enable a programmer to make changes to the source code, perhaps especially if the programmer has some familiarity with .NET, C#, and Visual Studio."
