How to create a license request

Creates a license request is very simple:

• Open a shell (command prompt for Windows)
• If you are using the NuGet package, after the first build of your project, run the following command within the output directory:

WindowsPrompt> MachineIdGenerator.exe
WindowsPrompt> dotnet MachineIdGenerator.dll

LinuxPrompt$ dotnet MachineIdGenerator.dll

• The license request file (JCOBridge.licreq) will be generated in the current directory of the shell or in the user Document folder (the folder depends on the operating system you run the tool on);
• Only on Windows platform a graphical tool for license management is available; run the following command within project output folder :

WindowsPrompt> LicenseManagerUI.exe
WindowsPrompt> dotnet LicenseManagerUI.dll

How to install a license

When the JCOBridge.lic is available, copy it to the target machine. You can choose two options:

1. The starting folder of the application using JCOBridge: the product searches for the license file in the current folder (the starting folder of the application which hosts JCOBridge) by default and if the file is found use it. It is the common folder where an user can put the license file.
2. A generic folder: to use a different folder use the specific command line option (see command line switch) to inform JCOBridge where the the license file is.
