This topic describes License parameters for the config.xml application configuration file.

License

XR Studio licensing is based on the AVEVA Licensing System and supports both on premise and cloud licensing.

This section contains an unique parameter named type that specifies the exact type of license the application is going to check out and verify before starting up and showing content.

License types

These are the possible available license types.

License	Description
XR_STUDIO	This license is needed to run XR Studio or to use XR Viewer with unreleased versions of the application.
XR_RUNTIME	This license is the standard runtime application license used to run released XR based projects and contains support for all XR runtime applications.
XR_RUNTIME_DEMO	This license has the same functionalities as XR_RUNTIME, but with AVEVA banners displayed over the 3D viewport.
XR_RUNTIME_LITE	This license supports a limited set of functionalities and is used only to execute released Design Review type projects.
XR_3RDPARTY_CONNECTORS	This license is needed by XR Bridge when using custom connectors.
MWPL	This license is only temporarily available. It allows use of the former MWPL licensing system instead of AVEVA Licensing System (ALS).
AUTO	This license automatically tries to check out licenses in the following order: MWPL, XR_RUNTIME, XR_RUNTIME_DEMO, XR_RUNTIME_LITE, XR_STUDIO.

Overriding the license type

Like any other Application configuration file parameter, the license type can be overridden by passing a different value from the command line.

Example: XRViewer.exe -param License.type XR_STUDIO

This is automatically done by XR Studio when starting an application in Debug mode from inside XR Studio.
