Source code Tango distribution
You can download a Tango source code release (release 7.1.1) from this WEB page. It is based on autoconf for Unix. It has been tested on various flavours of Linux (Suse, RedHat and Debian) and Solaris 10. Your feedback will be appreciated. The source distribution does not contain omniORB and omniNotify. Tango release 7.1 was tested with omniORB-4.1.4 and omniNotify-2.1.
There is a warning for omniNotify if you want to run it on a Linux based 64 bits computer. Its release 2.1 is not 64 bits compatible. To have a 64 bits ready release, you have to get the package from the branch named omniNotify_develop. On top of that, you also have to apply the patch provided by one community member.

Tango bindings
- Python (Python Web Site)
- Release 7.1.2
- Requires
- python (>=2.4) (tested with 2.6.4)
- tango (>=7.1.0, recommended 7.1.1) (tested with 7.1.1)
- boost python (>=1.33); if python >=2.6.3 boost python >= 1.41 (tested with 1.42)
- Source distribution (how to compile)
- Release 7.1.1
- Full binary distribution for Windows XP/Vista 32bits for python 2.6 (executable with PyTango, omniORB, Tango and boost python)
- Requires numpy (1.1.0) (tested with 1.3.0)
- C language
- A minimal client binding for the good old C language
- Release 1.0
- Source code distribution
- Matlab (Matlab Web Site)
- Release 1.8.3 for Matlab R2007b or later
- Requires Tango 6.1 or later
- Binary distribution for Windows
- comes with all required libraries except the MS Visual C++ 8 runtime dlls (available here)
- Source code distribution
- this binding is mainly used under Linux (tested under RHE Linux 4)
- LabVIEW (LabVIEW Web Site)
- Release 1.5.1 for LabVIEW 8.6
- Requires Tango 6.1 or later
- Binary distribution for Windows
- comes with all required libraries except the MS Visual C++ 8 runtime dlls (available here)
- Source code distribution
- this binding works like a charm under Linux (tested under RHE Linux 4). However, the current Linux version of LabVIEW has been compiled with an antediluvian <libstdc++ 5> based gcc compiler. Therefore, for binary compatibility reasons, the binding and whole Tango software chain must be compiled with gcc < 3.3.x. Recommended version is 3.2.3. It's a shame, isn't it?
- Igor Pro (Igor Pro Web Site)
- Release 2.4.0 for Igor Pro 6.0 or later
- Requires Tango 6.1 or later
- Binary distribution for Windows
- comes with the required libraries except the MS Visual C++ 8 runtime dlls (available here)
- Binary distribution for MacOS 10.5 (aka Leopard)
- comes with the required libraries
- Source code distribution
-
Win32 and/or MacOS X compilation requires the WaveMetrics' XOP Toolkit
- Igor Pro doesn't run natively on Linux - might works under Wine however.
GUIs
- Tango ATK is a client framework for building applications based on Java Swing in a Tango control system.
- A new kid on the block is the TANGO Workbench - a rich client which will provide a single multiple document interface for all possible tasks TANGO users, managers and developers need to carry out. We are requesting comments on this proposal.
