The simplest way to allow someone to use your model is to send them the Vensim Model Reader installer along with a copy of your model. To do this, you do not need to develop any interface for your model, but simply publish your model to a package (see Sending Models to Others). You can build in a very simple but effective interface using the Input Output Objects in the sketch. Chapter 12 of the User’s Guide shows how to do this. If you have defined a special graph set, or use a special tool set be sure that you publish the model.
Set the section below on Vensim DLL applications for details on how to prepare applications using the Vensim DLL.
The Vensim Model Reader is available free from our web site www.vensim.com. You are welcome to send this installer to other people to read your models.
