Title
How to simply parse response file without processing it?

Summary

Is there a way to parse a response file without processing it?

Question

We're using FNE 2017 R1 and would like to parse a response file to find out the Host ID. The assumption is we could use FlcCapabilityResponseCreateFromFile(), but this call may invoke a "Response is out of order" error. Is there an alternate coding approach we can use to parse a response in C++? Just to parse it, preferably even without involving a licensing object (though we'd prefer to be able to parse a response file with any given licensing object, not necessarily the one that created the corresponding request). Would calling dumpbin.exe and parsing its output but prudent? The concern is that may break with a future next release. Any ideas?

Answer

Calling dumpbin.exe and parsing its output is fully supported functionality, so you should be good to go with that plan.
