| | | ## Project Structure |
|---|
| | | The software is made by 4 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)) `lccgen` for customizing the library and generate the licenses. |
|---|
| | | - examples projecs |
|---|
| | | - Usage [examples](https://github.com/open-license-manager/examples) to simplify the integration in your project. |
