## License
The project is donated to the community. It comes with a very large freedom of use for everyone, and it will always be.
It uses a [BSD 3 clauses](https://opensource.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause) licensing schema, that allows free modification and inclusion in commercial software.
## Project Structure
-The software is made by 2 main sub-components:
+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 generator lcc-license-generator `lcc` for customizing the library and generate the licenses.
+- 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.
-The following modules are planned...
-- a license [backoffice](../../issues/7) in php (in order to handle multiple licenses).
-- a license debugger to be sent to the final customer when there are licensing problems.
-- a [log descriptor](../../issues/8) in order to decrypt logs generated by the license system.

- 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.
