Setting License Info

This topic describes how you can use a DVDBuilder license file.

DVDBuilder License File

The DVDBuilder license file is sent to you via email when you purchase a license. The license file is an XML document that looks similar to this one:

<!-- 
This file contains PrimoSoftware license(s). 
Line breaks and indentation between elements can be edited, 
but any other reformatting may invalidate the license(s). 
-->
<primoSoftware>
    <license version='1.0'>
        <token>abcd1234efghi5678</token>
        <revision>2</revision>
        <issueDate>2015-01-02</issueDate>
        <expireDate>2017-01-03</expireDate>
        <updateTime>2015-12-09 04:50:15</updateTime>
        <item id='avb-win'>
            <product>avb</product>
            <feature id='aac-dec' />
            <feature id='ac3-dec' />
            <feature id='mpa-dec' />
            <feature id='mpa-enc' />
            <feature id='vorbis-dec' />
            <feature id='wma-dec' />
            <feature id='h261-dec' />
            <feature id='h263-dec' />
            <feature id='h264-dec' />
            <feature id='mjpeg-dec' />
            <feature id='mpeg2-dec' />
            <feature id='mpeg2-enc' />
            <feature id='mpeg4-dec' />
            <feature id='vc1-dec' />
            <feature id='vp8-dec' />
            <feature id='wmv-dec' />
            <feature id='pcm' />
        </item>
        <item id='dvdb-win'>
            <product>dvdb</product>
        </item>

</primoSoftware>

C#

You have to pass the XML as a string to Library.SetLicense. In C#, it is possible to use a string literal, e.g. @"xml goes here":

using System;
using System.Diagnostics;

using PrimoSoftware.DVDBuilder;

namespace SetLicense
{
    class Program
    {
        private const string licenseXml = 
            @"
            <!-- 
            This file contains PrimoSoftware license(s). 
            Line breaks and indentation between elements can be edited, 
            but any other reformatting may invalidate the license(s). 
            -->
            <primoSoftware>

        static void Main(string[] args)

            Library.SetLicense(licenseXml);
            Debug.Assert(LicenseStatusFlags.Ready == Library.LicenseStatus);

            Library.Shutdown();
        }
    }
