Glossary Item Box
Your PowerTCP License Agreement provides you with a single-seat development license and the right to distribute PowerTCP classes with NO ROYALTIES of any kind. Some PowerTCP classes are marked as licensed. This topic covers:
Trial Installation
Installing a PowerTCP product as a fully–functional trial involves running the trial setup program (available from www.dart.com). The trial will operate for 30 days after installation. Proceed to step 2 of Installing a Fully Licensed PowerTCP Product when you are ready to license the product.
See Trial Operation for more information.
Installing a Fully Licensed PowerTCP Product
A download link for obtaining the licensed version of the product is provided along with a new serial number. Once the licensed version is downloaded, complete the following steps to register your PowerTCP product.
If you have Internet Access on your development machine, please follow these instructions:
After either of the two registration procedures are complete, your PowerTCP product appears in the Registered Tools field at the top of the registration form. Make sure you recompile your application after you register the PowerTCP product.
Re-installing a PowerTCP Product
The Key provided by the Registration Program is derived from a system number that is changed when the C: drive is reformatted. If you reformat your hard disk and need to re-install your PowerTCP product, follow the steps in Installing a Fully Licensed PowerTCP Product. A new Registration Number will be generated.
License Details
When you insert a PowerTCP component into a project, most development environments verify that the class is licensed for development. The component will work if you correctly entered the PowerTCP product Serial Number. See Installing a Fully Licensed PowerTCP Product for more information. When you compile your application, the development environment requests this Serial Number and embeds it in the application. When users run your application, the application submits this Serial Number to the class and the Serial Number is checked for validity. If the Serial Number is correct, then the application runs. This verification process occurs automatically.
