Interface LicenseHandler

All Known Implementing Classes:

LicenseLoader

public interface LicenseHandler

can be used to obtain a license from some source if a call to Settings.checkLicense(Object) initially fails. This callback handler could be used e.g. to try to renew a license from some well known server once the local license expired. Another alternative would be to open up a dialog where the user can select a file to import a license.
