Create deployment license ( mergedApp ; buildLicense {; oemLicense} ) -> Function result

Parameter	Type	Description
mergedApp	4D.Folder	Folder containing the merged application
buildLicense	4D.File	License required to generate the embedded license
oemLicense	4D.File	4D OEM XML Key license if server license
Function result	Object	Status

Description

The Create deployment license command creates an embedded license file in the Licenses folder of the mergedApp built application. If the Licenses folder does not exist the mergedApp, it is created by the command.

In mergedApp, pass a 4D.Folder object containing a reference to the folder containing the built application in which you want to embed a license.

In license, pass a 4D.File object containing a reference to the license file used to generate the embedded license.

If the build requires a specific OEM license (4D OEM XML Keys) and if no such license is already installed in the Licenses folder of the building machine, you need to pass it using the oemLicense parameter. This parameter is useful if you dedicate a machine to build your applications.

The command returns a status object containing the following properties:

Property		Type	Description
success		Boolean	True if the license file has been generated
file		4D.File	The generated license file
statusText		Text	Description of the error if any
errors		Collection	Collection of error objects
	[].message	Text	Error message
	[].errCode	Number	Error number

Notes:

The generated license must be used only with the application referenced by mergedApp.
It is necessary to regenerate the license each time the application is rebuilt.
