| | | Protect the software you develop from unauthorized copies, limit the usage in time, to a specific set of |
| | | machines, or prevent the usage in virtualized environments. It is an Open License Manager that helps to keep your |
| | | software closed :smirk: . Among other features if it runs on a "real hardware" it can generate a signature of that hardware and report if the signature doesn't match. |

| | | The software is made by 3 main sub-components: |
| | | - a C++ library with a nice C api, `licensecc` with minimal (or no) external dependencies (the part you have to integrate in your software) that is the project you're currently in. |
| | | - a license debugger `lcc-inspector` to be sent to the final customer when there are licensing problems or for calculating the pc hash before issuing the license. |
| | | - a license generator (github project [lcc-license-generator](https://github.com/open-license-manager/lcc-license-generator)) `lcc` for customizing the library and generate the licenses. |
| | | - a license generator (github project [lcc-license-generator](https://github.com/open-license-manager/lcc-license-generator)) `lccgen` for customizing the library and generate the licenses. |

| | | ## How to build |
| | | Below an overview of the basic build procedure, you can find detailed instructions for [linux](http://open-license-manager.github.io/open-license-manager/development/Build-the-library.html) |
| | | or [windows](http://open-license-manager.github.io/open-license-manager/development/Build-the-library-windows.html) in the project web site. |

| | | |
| | | ### Prerequisites |
| | | - Operating system: Linux(Ubuntu, CentOS), Windows |
| | |
| | | - tools : cmake(>3.6), git, make/ninja(linux) |
| | | - libs : If target is Linux Openssl is required. Windows depends only on system libraries. Boost is necessary to build license generator and to run the tests but it's NOT a dependency of the final `licensecc` library. |
