Stockfish Conversion to C#

Post by whittenizer »

Hi all, I had initially started this for my Silverlight project but decided it was too much for me to handle so I'm thinking about having it outsourced. I have read the licensing, and from what I understand, I should be able to do this. However, before I do, I just wanted to double check in case I may have misinterpreted the agreement.

Thanks so much,

David

Do you need a strong engine chess or just an engine chess?

There are some C# engine projects on the web

Hi, I really enjoy working with Stockfish so I really want to maintain it best I can in C#. I know a conversion will not be as strong as C++ but if the port to C# carries over as much as possible from Stockfish then I believe it will still be very strong even for a Silverlight app.

Thanks
