Product Definition XML Format
The following XML example is from the sample file provided. The product and feature settings are the same as the settings presented in the FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications user interface for the Add Product and Add Product Feature pages.
<producer category="EDA Tools" name="Producer ABC" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="products.xsd">
<product category="PCB Layout" family="Board Designer" name="Board Designer Expert" number="100002" version="1">
<feature daemonName="abcd" name="BoardDes" licenseSystem="flex" licensesPerProduct="1" minimumVersion=""/>
<feature daemonName="abcd" name="layoutPlus" licenseSystem="flex" licensesPerProduct="1" minimumVersion=""/>
<feature daemonName="abcd" name="floorPlanner" licenseSystem="flex" licensesPerProduct="1" minimumVersion=""/>
</product>
</producer>
All settings that are required in the user interface are also required in the XML file, except for the following feature settings:
• | The licenseSystem attribute is optional. Valid values are “flex” or “lum”; the default value is “flex”. |
• | The licensesPerProduct attribute is optional. The default value is “1”. |
Product Definition Sample Files
To assist you in creating product definition files for import, FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications provides the following sample files in the FlexNet Reporting installation directory (in \site\samples):
• | ProductSample.xml—Contains the format for product definition import with example data. |
• | products.xsd—Contains the formal definition that can be used by XML editors to ensure the XML files are correct. |
