Hi All,

I have created a DLL in VS.NET. The DLL contains Windows
Forms and I embed an object tag that refers to this DLL in
an aspx page. In other words, this is a client
application that is hosted in IE.

The DLL also uses a 3rd party control that requires a
license.

When the app is running from within the browser, I get a
LicenseException exception thrown.

I presume this is because it cannot find the license.

Q. How is the license file usually located by the 3rd
party control that requires it, in this scenario?

I would assume that the answer would be specifi to the the
third party control, and I would somehow need to point to
or configure the control to look in a certain location for
this file.

Thoughts?
Thanks,
BLH

Hi BLH,
Because the .NET License model is flexible, everyone could make a
derived Lincense Provider,
so I'm not cleary about the implementation of your 3rd party control.
However, if it uses the class LicFileLicenseProvider, I think you may
referr to the remarks of
LicFileLicenseProvider.GetLicense method,
ms-help://MS.MSDNQTR.2003FEB.1033/cpref/html/frlrfsystemcomponentmodellicfil
elicenseproviderclassgetlicensetopic.htm

If it is not the same, you'd better ask the company making that control for
help.
Thanks!
