Software license management - 3rd party tools?

[Ian.W]

I'm looking for advice regarding 3rd party tools to manage our software's use. 

Specifically, we want to enforce expiry dates and different levels of feature content.  So far I've been looking at SoftwareShield and CrypKey.  Another question I have is how well it will integrate with CVI 8.0's distribution kits.

Thanks in advance!

I think the best solution for you should be EXECryptor or/and HardKey
License Manager.

from http://www.strongbit.com

I'm using it for several months. Handy and secure licensing.

I have a question for Bill, since I'm using execryptor as well:
Have you succeeded in crypting a piece of code marking it properly with the sequence of byte suggested by strongbit?
It seems that you need a compiler giving you the chance to hardcode a fixed sequence of bytes in a certain point of the code.

Anyone know an alternative way to do that? (without the use of assembler, since the CVI compiler doesn't support it)
