Setting License Info

AVBlocks License File

The AVBlocks license file is sent to you via email when you purchase a license. The license file is an XML document that looks similar to this one:

<!-- 
This file contains PrimoSoftware license(s). 
Line breaks and indentation between elements can be edited, 
but any other reformatting may invalidate the license(s). 
-->
<primoSoftware>
  <license version='1.0'>
    <token>abcdefghijklmnlo</token>
    <revision>1</revision>
    <issueDate>2013-05-29</issueDate>
    <expireDate>2015-05-30</expireDate>
    <updateTime>2014-11-02 22:59:08</updateTime>
    <item id='avb-win'>
      <product>avb</product>
    </item>
    <item id='avb-mac'>
      <product>avb</product>
    </item>
    <item id='avb-linux'>
      <product>avb</product>
    </item>
    <item id='avb-linux-debian'>
      <product>avb</product>
    </item>
    <signature>very_very_long_signature_string_here</signature>
  </license>
</primoSoftware>

In C++, you have to pass the XML as a string to Library::setLicense. You can use a C++11 string literal, e.g. R"xml( xml goes here )xml".
