Licence Protector allows testing all license features without an user interface. If you have a server application or a service, we recommend the following implementation:

 

•Create one executable which is only used to activate the product and display license information. This executable can be started on the server or on a workstation

 

•Implement the license tests on the server, using the DLL commands without user interface. You find all necessary commands in the chapter Multiple Modules or a typical integration sequence below.
 
You have to signal to your Client PC's error codes like no free license or evaluation period expired

 

•If you need to have a network license per PC, user or floating license see chapter Network license with Server Application

 

Source Code Integration

Find below a typical sequence for a server test

 

•SetLanguage

•PrepareAdvanced (opens file without user interface)

•ValidateEx(check module - see also Network license with Server Application)

•RemainingDays or ExpiredOn (check for time limitation)

•For each function / module to test use ValidateEx with a different module number

•Quit

 

If you use commands for online connection, disable all pop-up screens using ShowWAStartPage, ShowWAProgressPage, ShowWAResultPage

 

 

You have to ensure, that your service has a write access to the license file.
