Third Party Licensing & Activation Toolkit Overview

What is it?

LabVIEW 2010 allows developers to add licensing and activation features to their LabVIEW VIs and executables.

This will reduce the amount of effort required on your part to add ad-hoc licensing solutions and also gives end users a streamlined and consistent process for activating third party LabVIEW software.

Types of Licensing

The Third Party Licensing & Activation Toolkit provides a method  to add licensing and activation to your LabVIEW add-ons.

The  licensing can be applied as:

  • Development licensing:
    Licensing  a set of VIs / source code. This is done using the wizard interface  availble from Tools»Add-on Licensing Tool
  • Deployment licensing:
    Licensing  a built executable. This is done using the Licensing & Activation G  API availble in the function palllete.
