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"/>
<CLIENT_HOSTID>
<SETTING ETHERNET="C8A516AD01AFC9FA"/>
</CLIENT_HOSTID>
</FEATURE>
</LICENSEFILE>
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).
<LICENSEFILE CONFIGFILE="myprogram.lmx" OUTPUTFILE="floating.lic">
<FEATURE NAME="f1">
<SETTING END="2008-01-01"/>
<SETTING COUNT="5"/>
<SERVER_HOSTID>
<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).
<LICENSEFILE CONFIGFILE="myprogram.lmx" OUTPUTFILE="detailed.lic">
<!-- You can put comments into the header of the license if needed -->
<LICENSEFILE COMMENT="This license was created by the xml based license generator."/>
<LICENSEFILE COMMENT="You could use this space to explain the type of license you are providing."/>
<FEATURE NAME= "f2">
<SETTING START="2004-12-24"/>
<SETTING END="2012-12-25"/>
<SETTING MAJOR_VERSION="1"/>
<SETTING MINOR_VERSION="3"/>
<SETTING LICENSEE="our_user"/>
<SETTING COMMENT="Our_product_setting_values"/>
<SETTING KEYCOMMENT="hidden text retrieved from API"/>

</SERVER_HOSTID>
</FEATURE>
</LICENSEFILE>
Note that the CONFIGFILE and OUTPUTFILE settings can be specified either within the file or at the command line (see Generating licenses).
