Introduction
The C sample programs demonstrate how to use the C implementation of the Filter API. The sample code is intended to provide a starting point for your own applications or to be used for reference purposes.
The following C sample programs are provided:
The source code and makefile (program_name_platform.mak
) for the programs are in the directory install\samples\program_name
, where install
is the path of the Filter installation directory, and program_name
is the name of the sample program.
Before the sample programs can be compiled, you must replace the parameter YOUR_KEYVIEW_LICENSE
in the fpInit()
function call with your license information.
To compile the sample programs, use the makefile provided for the appropriate platform. Make sure that the Filter include
directory is specified in the include path of the project. After the executable is compiled and built, you must place it in the same directory as the Filter libraries.
NOTE: Compiled binaries are provided for some of the sample programs, in the PLATFORM/bin
folder. These have an embedded trial license, which expires approximately five months after release. If you set the environment variable KV_SAMPLE_PROGRAM_LICENSE_FROM_FILEPATH
to a file path, the sample program reads your license from the specified file. This allows you to use the program after the embedded trial license has expired, and to test or troubleshoot with your own license.
