feurich Posted November 6, 2003 Posted November 6, 2003 I just wabt to know if anyone knows how you can license a application written in VB.NET. I mean that after installing the application there should be entered a license key to get it to work Thanks, Cire Quote Trust the Universe
*Experts* mutant Posted November 6, 2003 *Experts* Posted November 6, 2003 How you decide to go with your licensing is up to you. One of the new trends in licensing is application activation, which connects to the internet and checks a database for info that was used in the registration. You can also make your users enter a serial number and other info without activation and store on the client computer. There is many possiblitites. Do you know what kind of protection are you looking for? Quote
feurich Posted November 6, 2003 Author Posted November 6, 2003 License Scheme The license sheme i'm looking for is a license per machine. Actually like the second option you mentioned. Just end user typing in a license serial number. and after that the application will work before that the application doesn't run. Maybe you have some websites where i can find some information?

*Gurus* Derek Stone Posted November 6, 2003 *Gurus* Posted November 6, 2003 Your best bet is to purchase a commercial solution: http://www.xheo.com/products/licensing/default.aspx Quote Posting Guidelines
donnacha Posted November 13, 2003 Posted November 13, 2003 It must be possible to do this ourselves without using external components. Have a look at thi sample and see if it helps. I would love to solve this for myself as well. http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/UserSamples/Download.aspx?SampleGuid=86B1E31F-C717-4C21-9721-61B9ADB38E9B Quote Hamlet

feurich Posted November 13, 2003 Author Posted November 13, 2003 Did I understand this wright ?? You want to copy the functionality of the SevenObject license scheme to one of our own?? Sound pretty daring to me ...but nevertheless why not. Cire Quote Trust the Universe
vbdotnetmania Posted October 28, 2004 Posted October 28, 2004 I've a few applications made in VB.Net that I have ready to put online for selling and obviously I want to protect them via licensing but trying to find good information is proving really difficult. You would think that this information is readily available. Anyway just wondering how you are getting on with this feurich. Quote
feurich Posted October 29, 2004 Author Posted October 29, 2004 I have lookde at the SevenObject code. It seems to be written well. But I didn't got it to work. So after that I didn't spnd time on it anymore. Maybe you can look at the code to and we can help each other understanding it? :cool: Quote Trust the Universe
