LicenseGenerator.Get

The Get method retrieves license attribute values.

Syntax

  varAttributeValue = LicenseGenerator
  .Get ( bstrAttributeName )

Parameters

bstrAttributeName

The name of the attribute for which you want a value. This must be one of the following values.

Value Description
Kid The encoded key ID in the license request. The key identifier is stored in the Windows Media file, and becomes part of the challenge blob when the client requests a license.
Kid_decoded The decoded key ID.
Client_version The client version number. The format is x.x.x.x where x is an integer in the range zero (0) through 255. The client verification key used to verify the authenticity of the client depends on the client version number. Because the client version number is not available until after the IssueLicense method is called, you must put all possible client verification keys into the database by using the Set method.
Rights_issued The rights issued to the client. This value is a hexadecimal encoding of a 4-byte number. The 32 bits represent the possible rights.
Expiry_date The expiration date of the license. The format is YYYYMMDDZ, where YYYY represents a four-digit year, MM represents a two-digit month, DD represents a two-digit day, and Z indicates that the date is in universal format.
License_request_version The version of the license request. The format is the same as the client version number.
License_version The version number of the license issued.
Cert1_days_to_expiry The number of days left before cert1 expires.
Cert2_days_to_expiry The number of days left before cert2 expires. Can be either "Unused Cert" or an integer.

Return Values

This method returns a Variant containing the value of the attribute. If it fails, it returns a number in the error object.

Remarks

You can use the attribute values, with or without a database, to make decisions regarding whether to issue the license.
