- NMath license information is stored in a license key which must be found at runtime. When you purchase one or more developer seats of NMath, you will be issued a license key describing the terms of your license. If no license key is found at runtime, a default evaluation license key is used which provides a free 30-day evaluation period for NMath on the current machine.

How to generate and validate a software license key? (10)
I'm currently involved in developing a product (developed in C#) that'll be available for downloading and installing for free but in a very limited version. To get access to all the features the user has to pay a license fee and receive a key. That key will then be entered into the application to 'unlock' the full version.
As using a license key like that is kind of usual I'm wondering :
- How's that usually solved?
- How can I generate the key and how can it be validated by the application?
- How can I also avoid having a key getting published on the Internet and used by others that haven't payed the license (a key that basically isn't 'theirs').
I guess I should also tie the key to the version of application somehow so it'll be possible to charge for new keys in feature versions.
Anything else I should think about in this scenario?
Besides what has already been stated..
Any use of .NET applications are inherently breakable because of the intermediate language issues. A simple disassembly of the .NET code will open your product to anyone. They can easily bypass your licensing code at that point.
You can't even use hardware values to create a key anymore. Virtual machines now allow someone to create an image of a 'licensed' machine and run it on any platform they choose.
If it's expensive software there are other solutions. If it's not, just make it difficult enough for the casual hacker. And accept the fact that there will be unlicensed copies out there eventually.

If your product is complicated, the inherent support issues will be create some protection for you.

Following table shows all the logical operators supported by C language. Assume variable A holds 1 and variable B holds 0, then −
| Operator | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
| && | Called Logical AND operator. If both the operands are non-zero, then the condition becomes true. | (A && B) is false. |
| Called Logical OR Operator. If any of the two operands is non-zero, then the condition becomes true. | (A B) is true. | |
| ! | Called Logical NOT Operator. It is used to reverse the logical state of its operand. If a condition is true, then Logical NOT operator will make it false. | !(A && B) is true. |
