What is the License Controller?

The Four Js License Controller provides a local solution for controlling Four Js product licenses.

A license controller (for example fglWrt) is installed as part of your Genero product installation. It is provided in the product package. The license controller is a command line program only.

Tip:

The Genero Licenser application is a GUI tool that provides an interface to the licence controller, which you can use instead to complete the licensing process, see Genero Licenser Application.

Licence controller programs

Different licence controller programs are used by different Genero products; though they all perform similar licensing functions. The licence controller appropriate for your product is provided in the product package.

Genero product Licence controller
Genero Enterprise fglWrt
Genero Mobile fglWrt
Genero Report Writer for Java, C# and PHP grXwrt
Genero Report Engine greWrt

With the licence controller you can perform the installation, updating and management of licenses locally and also view licence information and various types of license-related statistics.
