The following are examples of XML files for floating and node-locked licenses, and a more detailed example including multiple features and additional, optional settings. These examples are included as sample files in the LM-X distribution, so you can modify the file that most closely fits your needs.

Node-locked license example

The following shows an example of the XML file content for a node-locked license with a single feature (sample file nodelocked.xml). Note that the CONFIGFILE and OUTPUTFILE settings can be specified either within the file or at the command line (see Generating licenses).

<LICENSEFILE CONFIGFILE="myprogram.lmx" OUTPUTFILE="nodelocked.lic">
  <FEATURE NAME="f1">
    <SETTING MAJOR_VERSION="1"/>
    <SETTING MINOR_VERSION="5"/>
    <!-- Note that settings below optional and can be enabled or disabled e.g. for unlimited or demo licenses -->
    <SETTING END="2008-01-01"/>
