How to merge several license files in 1 file?     I’ve created 2 videos showing/explaining how to generate a license file for several products in same time. The doc explains the process to: Download multiple NL license files for different products based on 1 registration Download multiple Floating license files for different products based on 1 registration and how to merge them in 1 file.     Note: If you have several floating registrations and want to merge the license files in one file, the process is similar to 2. You must copy all license files in 1 file and keep only the first 3 server lines. The other must be commented by adding a # as explained above.

If you are already a CodeWarrior user, you must know by now that there are a million ways to use it and squeeze all the potential out of this useful tool. One of those ways is having access to more products and licenses for the Development Suite you got. Haven't done that yet?   When  you have a perpetual suite with an active support contract, you are entitled to all the latest versions of the CodeWarrior products wihin the suite you've got and the license will never expire. However, you might have also got the anual subscription license, which will be obviously over after a year of usage (a year and a month or so )   The first step, as usual, will be to access into your Freescale account, and continue to the "Software & Support" link, where you'll be able to select the account that you will like to use if you have multiple accounts created,  after you have selected your account you will come upon all the software that you are entitled to used in your account, in there you'll get many options to get your licenses, download the newest versions of your CodeWarrior or get the latest updates and patches for your software.   This video here can show you complete details and guide you step by step with the access process       This document was generated from the following discussion: The specified item was not found.

Get “LM_NOTTHISHOST" license error message     A- Description   Most of the time the “Product Licenses” is working fine but there are some cases where the information provided are wrong. This is the case for: USBdongle license file is used for NL, Floating license file.     What’s about the USBdongle ?     Under PA V10.4 for instance when the USBDongle is plugged and the license file correctly installed when we launch Eclipse we get a license information: According to the message there is a problem with the USBDongle or with the license file.   Most of the time the license file is running fine. Is there a way to check it ?                 ……….. YES.     For MCU V10.6 the error is:                 "Unknown error with key ProfessionalEditionMCU 10.5, LM_NOTTHISHOST.  "       B- Solution   For the USBdongle, we can check the license file using an example project: For MCU V10.6, we can launch the HC08compiler in standalone mode and try to build a big application (requiring a valid license).   For PA V10.4 we must use an application using Freescale tool chain (requiring a valid license).     CW for MCU V10.6                 Refer to MCU_full_test.avi attached                 Project file attached too. By default the USBDongle should work fine. However I know some customers experienced a problem similar to CW for PA V10.4.   How can we test if an USBdongle license file is running ?   The best way is to create a project using HCS08 for Simulator. For this test I will create a project and added lot of asm nop code to have a big application.   1st test: Add USBDongle license file in \CW_MCU_v10.6\MCU path. However the USBdongle is not plugged on the PC. So the license file is not running. Re-start Eclipse and re-open same project.   2nd test: Same as 1st test but I plugged the USBdongle key now. Here the license file is correctly recognized - Activated. However you could have same problem as 1st test. In this case to check the license you must build the project.   Now the project is built without any license error (even if the license information always provides wrong information).     CW for PA V10.4.                 Refer to the PA_full_test.avi attached   How can we test if an USBdongle license file is running ?   The best way is to create a project using Freescale compiler (GCC is free so more difficult). For this test I will create a project based on 8250 device.   1st test: Without no license file.   2nd test: Add USBDongle license file in \CW_PA_v10.4.0\PA path. However the USBdongle is not plugged on the PC. So the license file is not running. Re-start Eclipse and re-open same project.   3rd test: Same as 2nd test but I plugged the USBdongle key now.   Now the project is built without any license error even if the license information always provides wrong information.     Hope this will help you.   Pascal

How to apply renewal code on registration?     A- Annual subscription   An annual subscription is valid for 1 year (12 months). The license files associated to an annual subscription will expire the end date defined to the registration. To continue to use it you need to purchase an annual renewal code and apply it to the registration. This will change the end date to current date (today) + 12 months. Then you need to re-generate the license file.   For single seat (Nodelocked or 1 floating), please have a look to:                 http://www.nxp.com/products/software-and-tools/software-development-tools/codewarrior-development-tools/licensing-and-registration/licensing-and-registration-faq:CW_LICENSE_FAQ#12   For multi-seat, please have a look to:                 http://www.nxp.com/products/software-and-tools/software-development-tools/codewarrior-development-tools/licensing-and-registration/licensing-and-registration-faq:CW_LICENSE_FAQ#29   Attached you will find a video showing you to apply a renewal code to annual subscription and how to get the new license file.     B- Permanent subscription   A permanent subscription as an end date too (1 year). The end date is just to determine the tool versions you can use, have access to. The license file associated to the permanent registration will not expire. It’s permanent one. If a new version of tool is released the July 1 st and your registration expired the May 1 st , you will not have access to this new version. In this case you need a valid registration and so need to purchase and apply a renewal code which is not the same than annual subscription.   For single seat (Nodelocked or 1 floating), please have a look to:                 http://www.nxp.com/products/software-and-tools/software-development-tools/codewarrior-development-tools/licensing-and-registration/licensing-and-registration-faq:CW_LICENSE_FAQ#11   For multi-seat, please have a look to:                 http://www.nxp.com/products/software-and-tools/software-development-tools/codewarrior-development-tools/licensing-and-registration/licensing-and-registration-faq:CW_LICENSE_FAQ#28   Here you can refer to the video attached.
