int VLScgSetNumSecrets (VLScg_HANDLE iHandle, codeT *codeP, char *valu);

Argument	Description
iHandle	The instance handle for this library.
codeP	The pointer to the codeT struct.
valu	This value sets the number of secrets.

Description

Sets the total number of secrets for the challenge-response mechanism.

Up to seven secret text strings can be specified, each up to twelve characters long.

The License Manager will then compute an authentication response when challenged by a client to confirm its identity.
