lsclws64.lib lsclws32.dll lsclws64.dll
Standalone licensing library

lsnnet32.lib

lsnnet64.lib lsnnet32.dll lsnnet64.dll

1 The SCP-integrated library—required for supporting the Lease mode and Connected (Cloud LM) mode—is to be obtained from the SCL Add-on package.

>In addition to using the correct libraries, you must also link the following libraries into your application: ws2_32.lib, rpcrt4.lib, shell32.lib, ole32.lib, oleaut32.lib, uuid.lib, odbc32.lib,odbccp32.lib,netapi32.lib, kernel32.lib, user32.lib, gdi32.lib, winspool.lib, comdlg32.lib, and advapi32.lib.

>For Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 and later, the user is required to link legacy_stdio_definitions.lib in their application.

>Refer to the sample32.MSVS<version>.mak make file in the Samples\C directory for details on how to link your application with the Sentinel RMS licensing library.

>The flag _VMSWIN_ needs to be defined while building Windows 32-bit or 64-bit application for proper struct packing.

UNIX

The following table provides the list of Sentinel RMS SDK C libraries for UNIX (32-bit and 64-bit):

Sentinel RMS Library Static Library Shared Library
32-bit 64-bit 32-bit 64-bit
SCP-integrated library1 liblssrvscp.a liblssrvscp64.a liblssrvscp.so liblssrvscp64.so
Integrated licensing library

liblssrv.a

liblssrv64.a liblssrv.so liblssrv64.so
Network licensing library

libls.a

 libls64.a libls.so libls64.so
Standalone licensing library

libnonet.a

libnonet64.a libnonet.so libnonet64.so

1 The SCP-integrated library—required for supporting the Lease mode and Connected (Cloud LM) mode—is to be obtained from the SCL Add-on package.

>The libls.a and libnonet.a libraries result in smaller executables, but provide limited functionality than the liblssrv.a library.

>To specify the library best for you, edit the Makefile in the samples directory. Change the value of the macro, LICENSE_LIBS. By default, it specifies the library libls.a to link with, via -lls. Change it to -lnonet or -llssrv.

>In addition to using the correct libraries, you must also link to the following libraries: libm and libpthread.

>For development with 64-bit Sentinel RMS licensing libraries, compile your application with flag _V_LP64_.

>While building samples, if you get the "ncurse" dependency error then install the "ncurses library package" depending on your operating system.
