Step 7: Set up a Reasonable Deployment (Usage Restriction)

Overview

In order to help protect the library source, set up an appropriate protection and access rights for the library. Then, use an appropriate type of usage restriction.

  • Supply the library in compiled format (*.compiled-library). Therefore, the project source cannot be restored. For this purpose, execute the File > Save Project As Compiled Library... command.

  • Increase the restrictions of the access rights for user Everyone. For further information, refer to the description of the project user management.

  • Reserve the right for viewing the content of the objects Project Information and Library Manager. For further information, refer to Access Control.

  • Restrict the usage of the library to certain platforms or devices: you can implement a check code which has the effect that the library will work if the appropriate device is used.
