## Recording The Programming Information

When you create a license, and decide to interface with the ClientProtector directly (as opposed to simply using IronWrapping where this is not required) it is critical that in your application you call the ClientProtector with the exact parameters required that reflect your licenses name, main file password, global authorization password and a code that identifies the fingerprint options you are using. If any one of these parameters is incorrect, you will get errors, or worse - your license will not authorize valid codes when it should.

SoftwareShield has simplified this process for you. When you compile a license project, there are two files that are created. The distributed license file as well as a Programming Notes File. You should use the contents of this file to ensure that the parameters you pass to the ClientProtector component are exactly correct. Keep a copy of this file along with your project for future reference.

If you use IronWrapping alone, this Programming Notes file is essentially just for your information since you do not need to do any programming to use IronWrapping alone.
