licensing

Does anyone have any experience querying FlexLM? (At a minimum) I need to be able to tell if a license is available for a particular application. Previously this was done by checking what processes were running, but if I can somehow query FlexLM, that would be more elegant! I've done this recently. I needed to query FlexLM license servers, and discover what licenses were outstanding/available. I didn't find a reasonable API for this, so I instead just launched lmutil, asked it to query the server, and parsed laboriously through the textual results. A pain, but it worked, and really didn't take

I've been looking for a simple key/license system for our users. Its partly to stop piracy (avoid users from sharing the application around) and the other half to track the number of 'licensed users' we have. I have already read a few good suggestions on SO but I'm curious as to how people have implemented the 30 day evaluation criteria. Do you generate a key that stores the date somewhere and do a comparison

I have written a Desktop based accounting software in Java. I want to put a key or licence or other kind of security to prevent redistribution of the software by the client. I just want to know how to go about it? The short answer: DRM doesn't stop piracy. It only hurts your paying customers. It doesn't really matter what you do. The best you can do is set up a simple product-key system, all that really does is makes your application not able to be copied quickly with no work, it doesn't really harm your paying customers but don't expect it to stop anyone who's determined not to pay for your

Are the Oracle ODP.NET libraries redistributable? As in, can I simply include the Oracle.DataAccess.dll with my application & reference it without getting into any legal hot water?

In c#, but you get the idea. You'll want to use System.Management for this: string driveLetter = Environment.SystemDirectory.Substring(0, 2); string sn = new System.Management.ManagementObject("Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceID=\"" + driveLetter + "\"").GetPropertyValue("VolumeSerialNumber").ToString(); As others have pointed out, this might not be the best way to handle this. However, that's your business. I can't offer you
