Deployment Instructions

Standard (Royalty-Free) Licensing

To activate a full version license visit the URL below:

http://lic.nsoftware.com/lic/?prod=BBCBU

You will be prompted to enter your Product Key, and a RuntimeLicense value will be generated.

In your code, assign the value to the RuntimeLicense property of the component. For instance:

component.SetRuntimeLicense("Value From Website");

This provides a license to the component and your application will run without a license prompt on any machine to which it is distributed. Note that each component instance in your code must be assigned a RuntimeLicense value.

Single Server Licensing

Single server licenses require the license to be activated on the system where the components will be used. To activate a single server license navigate to the root directory of the installation. You will see two executables, "install-license" (64 bit) and "install-license32" (32 bit). Choose the appropriate one for your environment activate a single server license by passing your product key to the application:

./install-license <key>

The single server license will be downloaded and stored in the ".nsoftware" folder of the user's home directory (i.e. "~/.nsoftware").

At runtime a valid license must be present in either the current directory or the ".nsoftware" folder of the user's home directory.

Trial Licensing

To activate a trial license navigate to the root directory of the installation. You will see two executables, "install-license" (64 bit) and "install-license32" (32 bit). Choose the appropriate one for your environment and activate a trial license by running the executable:

./install-license

The trial license will be downloaded and stored in the ".nsoftware" folder of the user's home directory (i.e. "~/.nsoftware").

The components may then be used on the machine for 30 days.
