Question:
What are the different types of licenses for VDSP?
Answer:
There are three types of licenses that are used by CrossCore Embedded Studio:
- Test drive license
- Evaluation license/ EZ-KIT license
- Full license
Test drive license:
A test drive license is a temporary license, currently issued for 90 days, after which it expires and renders VisualDSP++ inoperable. This type of license enables emulator debug sessions and simulator debug sessions only.
Evaluation license/ EZ-KIT license:
An evaluation license is a permanent, but restricted license.An EZ-KIT Lite license incorporates an initial 90-day full license. Once the 90 days have passed, the evaluation license becomes restricted, prohibiting simulator debug sessions and emulator debug sessions and restricting the amount of internal memory that is available for code (program memory)
Full license:
A full license (whether node-locked or floating) enables simulator, emulator, and EZ-KIT Lite debug sessions.
