GetLicenseInfo(param)

GetSystemNumberParam

GetLicenseNumParam param2 = new GetLicenseNumParam();

GetLicenseNum

IsUserLicensedParam class

IsUserLicensedParam userParam = new IsUserLicensedParam();

  1. userParam.wstrInstallNo = “<InstallationNo>”; //Installation No
  2. userParam.wstrModule = “SAP-ADDONS_HDB”;
  3. userParam.wstrUser = “manager”; //B1 User

var isUserLid = license.IsUserLicensed(userParam);

    Hello Yatsea Li

    I am testing the example modify the values for GetLicenseInfo

    The wstrInstallNo parameter I take it from INSTNO of B01_multiple.txt

    and the wstrModule parameter I take it from SWPRODUCTNAME of B01_multiple.txt

    When I get the information the GetLicenseInfoResult give me the next results:

    • lAvailable=86502810299924493
    • lEnd=642950282039480918
    • lNum=55834574863
    • lStart=86503347190976985
    • ReturnCode=0

    In B1H I have the next data:

    • Available=15
    • End=30/06/2014
    • Num=13
    • Start=05/05/2014

    I think I am doing something wrong or I need to make a CAST or something, but I don´t know where I can get information

    Can you give me some information?

    Regards

    Alvaro

      hi Alvaro Gonzalez,

      I tried on my side and everything is OK.

      I am checking your INum,

      INum = 55834574863 = 1101 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 1111

      and Num = 13 =  0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 1101

      notice that 1101 are the same and the rest are all 0000 or 1111.

      Also you can compare , convert below int to bit array (64 bit) and may find the low 32 bit are exactly the same.

      • lEnd=642950282039480918 and 20140630.

      So i suspect are this error happens because format convert?

      I would like to know how do you use this sample project, are you using a Int64 as default instead of Int32 ? The more detail, the better.

      Thanks.

      Li

        Hello Li Ding

        I am compiling my project with x86 option, the code runs over PC 64 bits, let me show you my test code:

        Dim license As SAPBusinessOneLicense.LicenseHelper

        license = New APBusinessOneLicense.LicenseHelper(“https://HANA:40000/license/“)

        Dim param As GetLicenseInfoParam

        param = New GetLicenseInfoParam()

        param.wstrInstallNo = “INSTNO” ‘from B01_multiple.txt

        param.wstrModule = “SWPRODUCTNAME” ‘from B01_multiple.txt

        Dim RESparam As GetLicenseInfoResult

        RESparam = license.GetLicenseInfo(param)

        And I am getting the value 51539607567 for lNum parameter

        Regards

        Alvaro

          hi Alvaro,

          Sorry for late reply, have you tried to compile with x86 option and run over 86 bit OS? Or with x64 option over 64 bit OS?

          Thanks,

          Li
