CodeMeter .NET Api 4.20

CodeMeter .NET Api by Wibu-Systems AG is a managed library that lets .NET developers integrate CodeMeter’s licensing and protection capabilities directly into their applications. It provides a straightforward way to enforce feature-based licenses, handle activations and updates, and interact with both hardware- and software-based license containers through the CodeMeter Runtime—all from C# or VB.NET.

Key capabilities:

• License enforcement and queries: Validate licenses, check features and entitlements, read license parameters, and handle expiration, counters, and consumption models.
• Activation and transfer: Support for activating, updating, borrowing, and returning licenses, including offline workflows via tickets or files, where applicable.
• Container support: Seamless access to CmDongle (hardware) and CmActLicense (software) containers, as well as network licenses via the CodeMeter License Server.
• Cryptographic services: Use secure key handling and cryptographic operations bound to CodeMeter license containers to protect application logic and data.
• Developer-friendly: Managed .NET API surface with examples and documentation to speed up integration in desktop or service applications.

With CodeMeter .NET API, software vendors can implement licensing, protect intellectual property, and deliver flexible business models—such as trials, subscriptions, feature tiers, floating licenses, and pay-per-use—without building a licensing system from scratch.
