5. _C_h_a_n_g_e_s__a_n_d__A_d_d_i_t_i_o_n_s
The _N_e_t_L_S _E_x_e_c_u_t_i_o_n _O_n_l_y _E_n_v (_n_e_t_l_s__e_o_e) was replaced by
version 1.1 of the _L_i_c_e_n_s_e _T_o_o_l_s (_l_i_c_e_n_s_e__e_o_e) product
(released with IRIX 6.1).
+o The _n_e_t_l_s__e_o_e._s_w._n_e_t_l_s__e_o_e subsystem is now
_l_i_c_e_n_s_e__e_o_e._s_w._n_e_t_l_s__s_e_r_v_e_r.
+o The _n_e_t_l_s__e_o_e._m_a_n._n_e_t_l_s__e_o_e subsystem is now

The following changes have been made to the _L_i_c_e_n_s_e _T_o_o_l_s
(_l_i_c_e_n_s_e__e_o_e) product since version 1.1.
+o The _l_i_c_e_n_s_e__e_o_e._s_w._l_i_c_e_n_s_e__e_o_e subsystem is now
_l_i_c_e_n_s_e__e_o_e._s_w._L_i_c_M_g_r.
+o The _L_i_c_e_n_s_e_M_a_n_a_g_e_r application now installs both FLEXlm
and NetLS software licenses.
+o Online help is now available for the _L_i_c_e_n_s_e_M_a_n_a_g_e_r
application (in the _l_i_c_e_n_s_e__e_o_e._b_o_o_k_s._L_i_c_M_g_r_H_e_l_p
subsystem).

The license_server product is now a part of the license_eoe

+o The _l_i_c_e_n_s_e__s_e_r_v_e_r._s_w._n_e_t_l_s subsystem is now

5.2 _F_i_n_d_i_n_g__F_L_E_X_l_m__L_i_c_e_n_s_e__F_i_l_e_s
The FLEXlm licensing software in the license_eoe product
uses the following algorithm to locate FLEXlm license files:
- 2 -
1. If the environment variable _L_M__L_I_C_E_N_S_E__F_I_L_E is
defined, it is assumed to be the name of a file
containing FLEXlm licenses. Multiple files can be
specified by separating them with a colon (':').
Files listed in the definition of _L_M__L_I_C_E_N_S_E__F_I_L_E are
checked for licenses first.
2. If the environment variable _L_M__L_I_C_E_N_S_E__D_B is defined,
it is assumed to be the name of a "license file
database", a file defining a list of files and/or
directories to be checked for licenses. If
_L_M__L_I_C_E_N_S_E__D_B is not defined, the file
"/_v_a_r/_f_l_e_x_l_m/_l_i_c_e_n_s_e_f_i_l_e._d_b" is used.
The format of a license file database is one file or
directory per line. Comments are indicated by a pound
sign '#' in the first column of the line. Blank lines
are ignored. Trailing and/or leading whitespace is
not allowed on a line.
Any directory listed in the file is searched for
filenames matching "*._d_a_t". Any subdirectory is also
searched (recursively).
3. If no license files have been found using either the
_L_M__L_I_C_E_N_S_E__F_I_L_E environment variable definition or the
license file database, the file
"/_v_a_r/_f_l_e_x_l_m/_l_i_c_e_n_s_e._d_a_t" is searched.
5.3 _S_u_p_p_o_r_t__f_o_r__F_L_E_X_l_m__L_i_c_e_n_s_i_n_g__i_n__V_i_e_w_K_i_t
VkFLM is a new class which can be used in applications
developed with the ViewKit C++ class library. For more
information, see _m_a_n _V_k_F_L_M.
5.4 _L_i_c_e_n_s_e__F_i_l_e__L_o_g_g_i_n_g
License Manager now checkpoints any files that it modifies
by checkpointing it to a file with the same name with the
extension ._l_o_g.
