LicFileLicenseProvider

---

System.ComponentModel (system.dll)

class

In this implementation of LicenseProvider , the GetLicense() member looks for a file called ClassName.LIC in the same directory as the .dll containing the component. It then uses the IsKeyValid() method to see if the file contains the key string provided by the GetKey() method. By default, the string is: "ClassName is a licensed component." You could derive a class that overrides one or both of these methods to provide a more complex .LIC file licensing scheme.

 public class  LicFileLicenseProvider  : LicenseProvider {  // Public Constructors  public  LicFileLicenseProvider  ();  // Public Instance Methods  public override License  GetLicense  (LicenseContext  context  , Type  type  , object  instance  ,          bool  allowExceptions  );  // overrides LicenseProvider   // Protected Instance Methods  protected virtual string  GetKey  (Type  type  );    protected virtual bool  IsKeyValid  (string  key  , Type  type  ); }
