## Simple Demo SN (Serial Number) Example License And Application

You can find this example program and license inside the folder \SoftwareShield\Pre-Compiled Examples\SimpleDemoSN.

Note that the license project file ("CheckPT_DemoExample.lpj") is provided for your reference but you should never distribute license project files (.lpj) with your actual applications.

The example license is configured to allow the software to run, but a locked function to not operate until you enter a valid Serial Number and perform a fully-automated online Activation using the CheckPoint License Server (indicating that you have "purchased" the software). Note that this "unlocking" can refer to a number or collection of functions or can all be separated and unlocked individually to give you more control over your license.

Below are instructions on how to test the example program and unlock it from a demo to a full version. Note that if you have not yet purchased the SoftwareShield System, while you are testing the example program, the "Demo Version" dialog may appear to remind you that the version of SoftwareShield you are using is a demo version. Simply dismiss this dialog and continue with the steps as noted. If you have already purchased the SoftwareShield System, but the "Demo Version" dialog continues to appear, be sure you have read and followed the instructions in the section: Unlocking The Demo Version Of SoftwareShield.

Note that you may wish to refer to the section How To Make a Demo Version Of Your Application for more detailed information.

### To Test The Application

Simply run the application and follow the instructions. We have provided a sample Serial Number right inside the application to simulate your original purchase of the product. Once entered a full-automated online activation will be performed illustrating unlocking the demo feature using the CheckPoint License Server.
