To install this license, do the following steps:
Printing the Installed License
- copy the string to a file and run the licensetool with the -create flag
- copy the generated JBrokerLicenses.class file to the $(JBROKER_HOME)/lib directory.
- If the ORB was installed as a Java 2 extension, then also copy this class file into the $(JAVA2_HOME)/jre/lib/ext/classes directory. If the classes directory does not exist then you will need to create it first.
- verify the license using the licensetool -print option (see below)
To print the installed license, run the licensetool with the -print flag. It will display the version of products installed and the type of license. See below for example from an evaluation license.
