C++

Copy

 string[] StandardOrHigher = new string[3] { "Standard", "Pro", "Enterprise" };
string[] ProOrHigher = new string[2] { "Pro", "Enterprise" };
string[] EnterpriseOrHigher = new string[1] { "Enterprise" };

LicenseValidator validator = new LicenseValidator(LicenseLocation.File, LicenseFileLocation, productName, publicKey, applicationSecret, ThisVersion);
LicenseValidationResult result = validator.CheckLicense();

switch (result.State)
{
    case LicenseState.Valid:
        //users license is valid
        break;
    case LicenseState.Trial:
        //users license is trial
        break;
    default:
        //users license is invalid
        break;
}

//check what edition we are running

if (validator.IsEdition(EnterpriseOrHigher))
{
    //enable enteprise features           
}

if (validator.IsEdition(ProOrHigher))
{
    //enable pro features
}

if (validator.IsEdition(StandardOrHigher))
{
    //enable standard features
}

Dim StandardOrHigher() As String = New String() {"Standard", "Pro", "Enterprise"}
Dim ProOrHigher() As String = New String() {"Pro", "Enterprise"}
Dim EnterpriseOrHigher() As String = New String() {"Enterprise"}

Dim validator As LicenseValidator = New LicenseValidator(LicenseLocation.File, LicenseFileLocation, ProductName, publicKey, applicationSecret, ThisVersion)
Dim result As LicenseValidationResult = validator.CheckLicense()

Select Case result.State
    Case LicenseState.Valid
        'Users license is valid
    Case LicenseState.Trial
        'Users license is a trial
    Case Else
        'Users license is invalid
End Select

'check what edition we are running

If (validator.IsEdition(EnterpriseOrHigher)) Then
    'Activate Enterprise features
End If

If (validator.IsEdition(ProOrHigher)) Then
    'Activate Pro features
End If

If (validator.IsEdition(StandardOrHigher)) Then
    'Activate Standard features
