Post Processor Protection

This feature allows the GPP developer to protect the post-processor with a specific license module.

GPP_PROTECT <string> ;

GPP2 uses the standard Cimatron licensing mechanism. It uses standard modules, namely GPP2_3X and GPP2_5X. In addition a PP-specific module can be defined with the GPP_PROTECT statement. This way, each Cimatron Provider can protect its own post-processors, and give evaluation and permanent licenses.

The use of this statement in a post-processor is optional. If used, GPP2 will try and grab the specified license. If not available, execution will stop and a runtime error message will be generated.

Multiple provider-specific license modules can be used in each post-processor. If multiple GPP_PROTECT statements are used, GPP2 only requires one of them to be available in the user license. It will search for them, one after the other, according to the order of their appearance in the EX2 program.

Example

GPP_PROTECT "PP_XXX_V2" ;     // Defines the controller

GPP_PROTECT "TechSupport" ;   // For the provider personnel
