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:
OPTIONS=SUITE
Optional field. Used to denote a package suite.
If set, the corresponding feature of the same name as the
package is checked out in addition to the component feature
being checked out.
If not set, then the corresponding feature of the same name
as the package is removed once the package is enabled; it is
not checked out when a component feature is checked out.
OPTIONS=
SUITE_RESERVED
Optional field. If set, reserves a set of package components.
Once one package component is checked out, all the other
components are reserved for that same user.
SUPERSEDE
[="
p1 p2 ..."]
Optional field. Used in conjunction with ISSUED date.
Replaces all PACKAGE lines for the same package name
with ISSUED dates previous to
dd-mmm-yyyy.
ISSUED=
dd-mmm-yyyy
Optional field. Used in conjunction with SUPERSEDE.
Replaces all PACKAGE lines for the same package name
with ISSUED dates previous to
dd-mmm-yyyy.
SIGN=sign or
AUTH=...
SIGN= signature to authenticate this FEATURE line.
If your publisher has deployed his vendor daemon using the
common vendor daemon technology, license certificate
signatures are embedded within the AUTH= keyword.
Contact your publisher for further details.
