Description
I work in an OpenEdge environment and need to activate my Telerik UI for WinForms license key. My projects, however, do not use NuGet packages. How can I activate the Telerik UI for WinForms without using the Telerik.Licensing package?
Solution
The following tutorial will demonstrate how to set up your license key in the OpenEdge environment.
-
Go to the Setting Up Your Telerik UI for WinForms License Key and follow the first two sections of the article.
- Downloading the License Key
- Activating the Telerik UI for WinForms Components
Go to the License Keys page in your Telerik account.
-
On the Telerik UI for WinForms row, click the View key link in the SCRIPT KEY column. Copy only the string in the first Telerik.Licensing.EvidenceAttribute("key").
Now we need to register the copied license key above.
CONSTRUCTOR PUBLIC Form1 ( ):
// ActivePerpetual script key
Telerik.Licensing.TelerikLicensing:Register("Your License Key").
InitializeComponent().
THIS-OBJECT:ComponentsCollection:Add(THIS-OBJECT:components).
CATCH e AS Progress.Lang.Error:
UNDO, THROW e.
END CATCH.
END CONSTRUCTOR.
The license key needs to be registered before initializing our controls. In the above scenario, the license key is registered before the InitializeComponent() method is executed.
- Add a reference to the
Telerik.Licensing.Runtime.dll.
Do not publish the script license key snippet in publicly accessible repositories. This is your personal license key.
