we are using centura team developer 2.0 (CTD) for creating our database applications (centura now changed its name back to gupta and is available under http://www.guptaworldwide.com/). CTD does support ActiveX, COM and COM+ technologies.

we have built a sample application using CTD and a trial version of PowerTCP Mail Tool to "QuickSend" email via SMTP. everything worked fine, so we licensed and registered the component on our development machine. the we reregistered the component in our application and rebuild/recompiled it completely.

now we are deploying the application to our test environment and get those naggy "Trial version" messages.

any suggestions ?!

Hi,
Unfortunately, this is an environment we are not familiar with. You may want to inquire with Gupta about using licensed controls with their product.

Generally speaking, if there is compilation involved, you want to make sure the controls are instantiated so the license is added at compile time (early-binding). The equivalent in VB would be to use Set and New as opposed to CreateObject.

If this is a scripting environment, you can try adding your license to the registry of the deployment machine. There are instructions for this under "Distribution Under IIS" on the Distribution page of the help file.

Hope this helps,

hello ken,

thanks for your reply. we have already opened a support case with gupta and they already have built up a test environment / test app. we will inform you whenever we got positive or negative response. is it possible to provide them with a registered license for their test environment ??

CTD is a dev environment which produces compiled EXE files and has a runtime environment (deployment files). it is especially used to design database applications (escpecially with centura/gupta databases, but also with SQL server or oracle as backend).
