Examples
The following code example creates a licensed control using the Validate method. It uses a LicenseProvider that is implemented by the LicFileLicenseProvider class.
// Adds the LicenseProviderAttribute to the control.
[LicenseProvider(LicFileLicenseProvider::typeid)]
public ref class MyControl: public Control
{
// Creates a new, null license.
private:
License^ license;
public:
MyControl()
{
// Adds Validate to the control's constructor.
license = LicenseManager::Validate( MyControl::typeid, this );
// Insert code to perform other instance creation tasks here.
}
public:
~MyControl()
{
if ( license != nullptr )
{
delete license;
license = nullptr;
}
}
};
using System;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Windows.Forms;
// Adds the LicenseProviderAttribute to the control.
[LicenseProvider(typeof(LicFileLicenseProvider))]
public class MyControl : Control
{
// Creates a new, null license.
private License license = null;
public MyControl ()
{
// Adds Validate to the control's constructor.
license = LicenseManager.Validate(typeof(MyControl), this);
// Insert code to perform other instance creation tasks here.
}
protected override void Dispose(bool disposing)
{
if(disposing)

{
