Eduction SDK Licenses

In Eduction SDK version 24.1, Eduction licenses consist of two files:

  • your license key, commonly called licensekey.dat, which contains information about the components and operations that you can run.

  • the version key, versionkey.dat, which contains information about the Eduction component versions that you can run.

In general the best way to use these two files together is to concatenate them with a semicolon character (;) as a separator.

Provide License Key Data as a String

In functions where you provide license key data as a string (such as EdkFactoryCreateWithLicenseKey and EdkSetLicenseKey in the C API), append the license key data with a semicolon character (;), followed by the data from your versionkey.dat file. Pass this string into the relevant argument of the function.

Load License Key Data from a File

For functions where Eduction loads license key data from a file (such as EdkEngineCreateFromConfigFile and EdkSetLicenseKeyFromFile in the C API), you can generate a create a valid license key file. Append your provided license key with a semicolon character (;) followed by the contents your versionkey.dat file. Use the path to this generated file as the license key file path argument of these functions.
