temporary license

[evgenykushtanov]

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

We have problem with temporary license generate. On your site we choose freescale- softwarw & support – generate licenses then we select license applicable to product (in our case it is  8.8 CodeWarrior DS for Power Architecture, Linux Application Edition (Windows Hosted) WIN Evaluation). And then we get a message License can not be generated, it is already expired. What does it mean? And how to apply for temporary license?

Hi,

When you've downloaded an evaluation of CW for PA V8.8, a date was defined.

The evaluation is valid for 30days only.

I've never tried it on my side but I think you should get similar message when the evaluation time expired.

Is it the case here ?

        I don't know without checking your account under the license data base.

You can extend an evaluation time:

If you've problem, can you provide me more information regarding your Freescale account.

I could check in our license data base.

Have a great day,
Pascal

Hello Pascal,

I also have a problem with my evaluation license. In the "License Information" page for "CodeWarrior for HC12 Professional Edition WIN EVAL", order number "CWX-H12-PROED-EX_90052597" it says that my temporary license expires on October 07, 2016 but lately whenever I compile I get a message saying that "feature "HI100300: HC12 Compiler ANSI-C is about to expire in 2 day(s) (22-sep-2016)!". I've tried to extend the evaluation on the NXP Software&Support page but I cannot find any link that could allow me to extend the evaluation period. The posts in this thread suggest that we could extend the evaluation up to two times.

My employer is in the process of ordering a license, a very slow process due to bureaucracy, but in the meanwhile I need to continue working.

Thanks a lot,

Doru

Hi,

for your problem, I suggest you create a case to license team for evaluation license request.

Hi,

I try to get extend my evaluation license. But always get answer CAN BE GENERATE. Then I select Order History under Software & Support in My Freescale  I saw the following:

Available Quantity

Does it mean that the license quantity is limited?

Hi,

I've never tried to extend an evaluation period.

Now via my account I've downloaded several tools evaluations.

One of them was downloaded middle of December 2014.

If I tried to get the evaluation license file I get a message saying:

          License can not be generated, it is already expired

Why ?

For my understanding you can extend 2 times the evaluation period only.

So it seems we could have up to 3 months (90 days) of tool evaluation.

After the delay expired (downloaded date + 3 months) it's not possible to get the license file anymore

What 's about my example ?

I've downloaded a tool evaluation the December 14th.

So the system allows me to download a license file up to March 14th (3 months).

After this date, this evaluation is not active and can not be used anymore.

Then the tool will continue to run at Special Edition - Free version.

If you need higher code size you need to purchase the corresponding suite.

For details please have a look to the link:

      CodeWarrior Suites (Bas, Stand, Pro)|Freescale

At left side select "PowerQuicc (Classic IDE)"

I've contacted colleague to have confirmation but for my understanding your evaluation period has expired.

I've access to the License Data base and could check the status of all your registrations.

To do that I just need your email address or the registration id which should be something like CWX-ARMV8-EX_61789371.

        - This is an evaluation of CW for ARMV8.

Attached you will find a new temp license file.

This license will expire the July 16th.

Rename it to license.dat.

Have a great day,

Hi,

I know about 30 days only. The previous has been expired.

I  logged into "My Freescale" with my email & password, clicked  on product Code Warrior DS Power Architecture, Professional Edition in my Product list.

Then I clicked License Keys Tab. Then I saw License Information. There is no any column “Extend Evaluation”. If I try to generate I'll take message License can not be generated, it is already expired.   How can you check my account?
