Implementing Custom Locking Criterion

To implement the standard custom and extended custom criterion, you need to perform the following steps.

NOTE   Refer to Choosing Locking Criteria to view the list of locking criteria that are supported on different platforms.

1.Create a function that obtains the value of the locking criteria you chose.

2.Register that function with the License Manager (only for server-locked and client-server locked licenses) using the VLSsetHostIdFunc, and similarly, use VLSsetCustomExFunc for registering the extended custom locking criteria.

3.Register the custom host ID function on the client.

4.Rebuild the License Manager (only for server-locked and client-server locked licenses).

5.Rebuild the client application and the echoid/Wechoid utility. For detailed instructions, refer to Appendix - Customization Features of the Sentinel RMS SDK API Reference Guide.
