About the .MLF License File

LICENSE

The <LICENSE> item contains general license information.

Contains <TITLE>, <DOMAINS> and <PERMISSION>.

Attributes are:

  • GUID: The globally unique id of the license, assigned by Mead & Company.
  • PUBLISHER: The name of the license holder that will appear in the 'Publisher' field of the Security Manager license acceptance dialog.
  • URL: The location -- on the Publisher's web site -- of further information about the Publisher.
  • FROM/TO: The period of validity of the license.
  • REVISION: The revision number of the license with the given GUID. A revision (for example, in the case of the later addition of new licensed domains) will lead Security Manager to prompt a user to accept the license again unless AUTOUPGRADE is present and enabled.
