Parameters

This property takes no parameters.

Return Values

If the property succeeds, it returns a String containing the date. If it fails, it returns a number in the error object.

Remarks

This property is useful when predelivering licenses for future events. By default, this right is not set and the license is effective immediately. The property fails if the expiration date is in a format that is not valid. Dates in licenses are in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and must be formatted as follows:

#yyyymmdd hh:mm:ssZ#

• Z is required.
• hh:mm:ss is optional.
• hh can be present without either mm or ss.
• hh, mm and ss must be written with two digits each.

Correct examples:

#20050212Z#

#20050212 09Z#

#20050212 09:45Z#

#20050212 09:45:12Z#

Incorrect examples:

#20050212 9Z#

#20050212 09:Z#

#20050212 09:8Z#
