When you create an HtmlBox control by dragging it from the toolbox, a licenses.licx file is automatically created by Visual Studio. The following steps are only necessary if you are using PowerWEB TextBox for ASP.NET classes without having dragged the control onto a form, or are using an IDE other than Visual Studio .NET.
To create a licenses.licx file, use the following steps. All PowerWEB classes are licensed, but only HtmlBox needs to be referenced in the licenses.licx file to use PowerWEB TextBox for ASP.NET.
- Start a new application in Visual Studio .NET and add the HtmlBox control as a reference.
- In the Solution Explorer, right-click the project name, choose Add, then Add New Item.
- From the resulting dialog box, choose Text File and name the file "licenses.licx". Click Open.
- Type the following in the licenses.licx file:
Dart.PowerWEB.TextBox.HtmlBox, Dart.PowerWEB.TextBox
- Save the file. You should now be able to compile and run a project that uses any PowerWEB TextBox class.
All PowerWEB classes are licensed, and will operate correctly if the above entry is added to the licenses.licx file.
Important! Do not change the "Build Action" property of the licenses.licx file from its default value of "Embedded Resource."
Important! Any time changes are made to the license, the Project (not the Solution) must be rebuilt or license changes will not take effect.
