Question:
We do not want any popup window for registration type messages. Moreover, the component needs to be part of application that can be deployed to an unlimited number of computers. Does the Chilkat licensing fit these requirements?
Answer:
Yes. Chilkat’s runtime licensing is designed so that there is no licensing infrastructure. There is also no "calling home". When your application passes a valid purchased unlock code to the UnlockBundle method at runtime, the string is checked to see if it conforms to a secret algorithm (in much the same way that you can tell if a credit card number or driver’s license number is valid). If yes, then an in-memory flag is set to indicate the API is unlocked. There are no external file or registry accesses. Moreover, your application can run on any computer because the unlock code is embedded directly within your source code.
