How to Retrieve the Host ID String in the FNE Binary License File

Synopsis

This article aims to show how to retrieve the hostid from a Binary license file using the Flexnet Embedded Client API calls.

Discussion

The following is an example of a Binary License file:

INCREMENT survey fnedemo 1.25 1-jan-2015 uncounted HOSTID=ID_STRING=teststring 
INCREMENT highres fnedemo 1.25 1-jan-2015 uncounted HOSTID=ID_STRING=teststring

To return the hostid it is possible to use the following call getHostIds. As an example modify the View.c sample that is provided so that the following call is performed:

*if(feature.getHostIds() != null) { 
info.append(" HOSTID=\"" + feature.getHostIds() + "\""); 
}

This should then return the following values based on the license file:

Features found in C:\Users\sflynn\Documents\NetBeansProjects\View\license.bin 
highres 1.25 01-Jan-2015 uncounted HOSTID="{STRING=[1234567890]}", Acquisition Status= Not valid for acquisition: Signature didn't pass validation. 
survey 1.25 01-Jan-2015 uncounted HOSTID="{STRING=[1234567890]}", Acquisition Status= Not valid for acquisition: Signature didn't pass validation.
