Examples:
PACKAGE suite sampled 1.0 SIGN=3B24B2F508CB \
COMPONENTS="comp1 comp2" OPTIONS=SUITE
FEATURE suite sampled 1.0 1-jan-0 5 SIGN=4193E6ABCCCB
This is a typical OPTIONS=SUITE example. There are two features, “comp1” and “comp2,”
which are each version 1.0, each with five non-expiring licenses available. When “comp1” or
“comp2” is checked out, “suite” is also checked out.
PACKAGE suite sampled 1.0 SIGN=2CBF44FCB9C1 \
COMPONENTS="apple:1.5:2 orange:3.0:4"
FEATURE suite sampled 1.0 1-jan-2005 3 SIGN=321E78A17EC1 SN=123
In this example, the component version overrides the feature version, and the number of
licenses available for any component is the product of the three licenses for “suite” and the
number of licenses for that component. The result is equivalent to:
FEATURE apple sampled 1.5 1-jan-2005 6 SIGN=0D3AD5F26BEC SN=123
FEATURE orange sampled 3.0 1-jan-2005 12 SIGN=EB16C5AE61F0 SN=123
