The version 2.0 of the library comes with clear API extension and customization points.
|
|
Tweak hardware signature generator
|
***************************************
|
|
If the provided hardware signatures don't behave well for your customers, or you want to change the default
|
way the library generates the pc identifier you can have a look at the following section.
|
|
First of all be sure to read about the standard behavior of :c:func:`identify_pc` here:
|
|
.. toctree::
|
|
hardware_identifiers
|
|
|
Change the hardware identification strategy
|
============================================
|
|
Included with the library there are three hardware identification strategies: `IP_ADDRESS`, `STRATEGY_ETHERNET` (mac address) and
|
`STRATEGY_DISK` (partition serial number). If you want to change the preferred one:
|
|
- locate the file `licensecc_properties.h`` (usually in ``projects/<$project_name>/include/licensecc/<$project_name>``
|
- you can change the order of the strategies in the following code block (the strategies will be tried in sequence until the first one succeeds):
|
|
|
.. code-block:: c
|
#define LCC_BARE_TO_METAL_STRATEGIES { STRATEGY_ETHERNET, STRATEGY_ETHERNET, STRATEGY_NONE }
|
#define LCC_VM_STRATEGIES { STRATEGY_ETHERNET, STRATEGY_NONE }
|
#define LCC_LXC_STRATEGIES { STRATEGY_ETHERNET, STRATEGY_NONE }
|
#define LCC_DOCKER_STRATEGIES { STRATEGY_NONE }
|
#define LCC_CLOUD_STRATEGIES { STRATEGY_NONE }
|
|
|
Custom license locator
|
***************************************
|
Your software struggle to find the license file ? you can implement your own way to find it. For instance if you want
|
to download the license from a remote server, you could implement the logic here.
