License File Introduction

The license file is an XML format file that contains details such as the username&email&organization of the purchaser, licensing date, product name, product version, the number of licensed developer, the number of licensed site and so on. The license file is digitally signed, so do not modify it anyway.

You need to apply it before performing any operations with our products, but it's only required once to apply the license file in an application or process.

How to Apply the License File

Performing any operation with our products will lead the license module to check whether the license has been loaded. If not, the license module will try to load it. The license can be loaded implicitly or explicitly from a file, stream or an embedded resource, implicit is default.

Note: Whether implicity or explicity, you must apply the license file before you call any of our products.

Implicit Loading

In this mode, the license module will try to search the license file in the following locations:

• The folder that contains the entry assembly (your assembly named .exe) in runtime.
• An embedded resource in the assembly that calls our product.
• The folder that contains the assembly of our product (for example: Spire.Doc.dll, Spire.XLS.dll) referenced by your assembly in runtime.
• The folder that contains the assembly that calls our product in runtime.

When you get the license file from us, the default name of it is license.elic.xml. You can put it in any location aforementioned. The license module will load it automatically in your application. You can also change the license file name. If you do that, it's required to tell the license module the new file name before you perform any operation with our products, for example:

//Tell the license module that you changed the license file name.
Spire.License.LicenseProvider.SetLicenseFileName("your-license-file-name");

//Tell the license module that you changed the license file name.
Spire.License.LicenseProvider.SetLicenseFileName("your-license-file-name");

You can also get the license file name by which the license module search the license, for example:

//To get the default license file name.
String fileName = Spire.License.LicenseProvider.GetLicenseFileName();

//To get the default license file name.
Dim fileName As String = Spire.License.LicenseProvider.GetLicenseFileName()

Explicit Loading

In this mode, the license module will try to load the license from a specified file or stream you provide.

Explicitly specify the license file by a full file name.

//Specify the license file by a full file name.
Spire.License.LicenseProvider.SetLicenseFileFullPath(@"D:\myApp\license.lic.xml");

//Specify the license file by a full file name.
Spire.License.LicenseProvider.SetLicenseFileFullPath("D:\myApp\license.lic.xml")

Explicitly specify the license file by a FileInfo object.

//Specify the license file by a FileInfo object.
FileInfo licenseFile = new FileInfo(@"D:\myApp\license.lic.xml");
Spire.License.LicenseProvider.SetLicenseFile(licenseFile);

//Specify the license file by a FileInfo object.
Dim licenseFile As New FileInfo("D:\myApp\license.lic.xml")
Spire.License.LicenseProvider.SetLicenseFile(licenseFile)

Provide a license data stream.

//Specify the license by a license data stream.
Stream stream = File.OpenRead(@"D:\myApp\license.lic.xml");
Spire.License.LicenseProvider.SetLicenseFileStream(stream);

//Specify the license by a license data stream.
Dim stream As Stream = File.OpenRead("D:\myApp\license.lic.xml")
Spire.License.LicenseProvider.SetLicenseFileStream(stream)
