The full package, often referred to as Stingray Studio, bundles several specialized components into one integrated library:

Objective Grid: A high-performance grid component for building spreadsheet-like interfaces with support for formulas and database connectivity.

Objective Toolkit: A collection of over 70 GUI controls, including docking windows, customizable toolbars, and layout managers.

Objective Chart: A graphing engine providing more than 30 chart types, including 2D/3D visualizations and curve-fitting.

Objective Edit: A specialized text editor component featuring syntax coloring and IDE-like capabilities.

Objective Views: A canvas-based drawing component for building diagrams and drag-and-drop interfaces.

Stingray Foundation Library (SFL): The architectural backbone that provides the Model-View-Controller (MVC) framework and OLE drag-and-drop support. Integration & Use Cases What's New in Stingray - Perforce Software

(formerly Rogue Wave Stingray), a comprehensive suite of C++ and .NET GUI development components for Windows applications. It is widely used by developers to build high-performance, professional user interfaces that mimic the look and feel of Microsoft Office, Visual Studio, and Outlook. Core Components of Perforce Stingray The "Full" Stingray suite, often referred to as Stingray Studio

, consists of several major product components designed for specific GUI needs: Objective Grid: stingray perforce full

A full-featured, object-oriented grid control that supports advanced cell manipulation, data binding (ADO/ODBC), and large-scale data visualization. Objective Toolkit:

A library of MFC (Microsoft Foundation Class) extension classes providing modern GUI controls such as docking windows, shortcut bars, and color wells. Objective Chart:

A toolkit for creating customizable 2D and 3D charts and graphs within Windows applications. Objective Views:

Provides a framework for building graphical editors, diagrams, and dashboards with drag-and-drop capabilities. Objective Edit:

A syntax-highlighting text editor component suitable for source code editing or advanced text manipulation. Key Features for Developers

Perforce Stingray streamlines Windows desktop application development through: Modern Look-and-Feel:

Built-in support for docking windows, floating document interfaces, and layout management. Platform Compatibility: Recent versions like Stingray 2024.1

support Windows 10/11, Visual Studio 2022, and .NET Framework 4.7.2. Database Connectivity:

Direct connection to data sources using ODBC and ADO for creating dynamic, data-driven spreadsheets. Getting Started Resources Last updated: March 2025

To implement the full Stingray suite, Perforce provides extensive documentation and support: Documentation: Stingray Documentation includes a Getting Started Guide and specific user guides for each component. Building Libraries:

Developers must often build the 32-bit or 64-bit libraries within Visual Studio, ensuring environment paths point to the correct Stingray include and source directories. Free demos are available on the Perforce Stingray Product Page to explore component capabilities. Note on Autodesk Stingray:

While "Stingray" was also a game engine by Autodesk, that product has been discontinued. In the context of Perforce, Stingray always refers to the GUI development frameworks. 2.3 Building Objective Toolkit - Perforce Support Portal

Create a stream or classic workspace. The "Full" experience requires +w (writable) permissions in your workspace view. Without this, Stingray cannot auto-checkout.

Example workspace view:

//depot/game/Assets/... //yourworkspace/game/Assets/... +w
//depot/game/Engine/... //yourworkspace/game/Engine/... +w

A "full" connection starts with a correct workspace view. Stingray is sensitive to relative paths. Your workspace mapping should look like this:

//depot/stingray_projects/MyGame/... //MyP4Workspace/...
-//depot/stingray_projects/MyGame/build/... //MyP4Workspace/build/...

Pro tip: Exclude the build/ folder. Stingray generates temporary compiled shaders and asset streams here. Adding them to Perforce causes infinite sync loops.

In the world of enterprise game development, embedded systems, and large-scale software engineering, version control is the backbone of collaboration. While Git dominates the web development sphere, massive file sizes and monolithic repositories require a different class of tool. This is where Perforce Helix Core (often simply called "Perforce") shines.

However, even the best engine needs a smooth ignition. Enter Stingray—specifically, the concept known in the industry as the "Stingray Perforce Full" integration. For developers and technical artists struggling with asset pipeline bottlenecks, understanding this integration is the key to unlocking true DevOps velocity. Create a stream or classic workspace

This article dives deep into what "Stingray Perforce Full" means, how it revolutionizes asset management, and why it is the gold standard for teams handling binary files.

A full integration transforms Perforce from a simple backup tool into the central nervous system of your Stingray project. By enforcing exclusive locks on binary assets, optimizing your typemap, and scripting your launch parameters, you can make an unsupported engine feel like a modern AAA pipeline.
