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).

Code Block
languagehtml/xml
<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 -->

Floating network license example

The following shows an example of the XML file content for a floating license with a single feature (sample file floating.xml).

Code Block
languagehtml/xml
<LICENSEFILE CONFIGFILE="myprogram.lmx" OUTPUTFILE="floating.lic">

...


  <FEATURE NAME="f1">

...


    <SETTING END="

...

2015-01-01"/>

...


    <SETTING ETHERNET="C8A516AD01AFC9FA"/>

...


    </SERVER_HOSTID>

...


  </FEATURE>

...


</LICENSEFILE>

Note that:

  • The COUNT setting is included, which identifies this as a floating license.
  • The CONFIGFILE and OUTPUTFILE settings can be specified either within the file or at the command line (see Generating licenses).
  • The feature's version number is not specified, so it will default to 1.0.

...

Detailed license example

The following shows an example of the XML file content for a floating license with multiple features, plus many of the optional settings such as license sharing, borrowing, etc. (sample file detailed.xml).

Code Block
languagehtml/xml
<LICENSEFILE CONFIGFILE="myprogram.lmx" OUTPUTFILE="detailed.lic">
