DeployLX Software Protection System

Type Limit

The Type Limit is used to control access to protected runtime types. The types can be enabled when generating a serial number, or later with an extension code.

How is the Type Limit Enforced?

During license validation DeployLX will verify that the type being validated is one of the enabled list of types. If they are not enabled then license validation will fail.

Types do not have to be enabled in the license. Instead they can be enabled later on the customer's machine when they enter a serial number or by entering an extension code.

  5. Select the features to enable and select OK to close the form.

Secure Storage

The limit uses DeployLX's Secure Storage service to track state on the client machine. Secure storage imposes additional security requirements that may require additional configuration

See the Secure Storage topic for more details.
