8.11 OEShapeIsLicensed

bool OEShapeIsLicensed(const char *feature=0, unsigned int *expdate=0)

Determine whether a valid license file is present. This function may be called without a legitimate run-time license to determine whether it is safe to call any of OEShape's functionality.

The ``features'' argument can be used to check for a valid license to OEShape along with that feature. For example, to verify that OEShape can be used from Python:

The second argument can be used to get the expiration date of the license. This is an array of size three with the date returned as {day, month, year}. Even if the function returns false due to an expired license, the expdate will show that expiration date. A value of a zeroes implies that no license or date was found.
