Thanks,

Hi!

There are other 3rd party solutions which do the licensing for Clarion Applications like SecWin from

Shankar,

Thanks for your try to help. Unfortunately it's incorrect. We've asked

http://www.capesoft.com,

and here their answer:

Q: Can SecWin work with FlexLM (FlexNet) license manager from Acresso Software? If it works, where could I read more about this feature?

A: No - we have our own integrated licence manager: SecwinOnlineServer - see

Hi Mike,

I was suggesting to use SecWin INSTEAD of FlexLM as it integrates better with Clarion Applications. Also, quite a few Clarion developers have used Armadillo successfully on Clarion Applications to protect them although I am not sure what options Armadillo offers for licensing. If FlexLM has a trial download, the best way is to try it first hand.

Shankar,

FlexLM (now it's FlexNet) helps us to manage licenses for hundreds applications from various vendors of software. We thought that would be nice to manage a few Clarion applications by the same license manager also. Looks like nobody did such thing before, thus we will try to make it.

Mike

Hi Mike,

If FlexNet works by creating a wrapper around the EXE generated by the Clation Application, it should work as Armadillo does something similar.

Please keep us updated on your trials.

Hi Mike,

Try posting to comp.lang.clarion and maybe you will find somebody who has gone down this path before.
