With Windows 7 on its way out, people and businesses are likely to start buying new PCs left and right, and 64-bit operating systems are liable to become the norm. And when that happens, people who want to use 64-bit C and C++ applications will have nothing to worry about, because Agilis Software intends to look out for them.
A press release explains, "Agilis Software . . . announced that their EasyLicenser License Manager and Orion Network Licensing Platform can now protect 64-bit C/C++ applications running on Linux, Windows, Solaris-SPARC and Solaris-Intel platforms, and on Mac OS X universal binaries. Linux support includes 32- and 64-bit Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SuSE and Ubuntu distributions and compatible platforms such as Fedora, CentOS, OpenSuSE, and Novell SLES/SLED."
Furthermore, "Independent software vendors (ISVs) can now use Agilis's secure, flexible licensing solutions to protect their applications on this expanded range of platforms, as well as on the 32-bit versions of Windows, Linux, Solaris-SPARC and Solaris-Intel, and on any Java-enabled platform. Orion can also protect C# and VB.net applications."
It's good to hear that C and C++ applications won't be allowed to stand in the way of 64-bit progress, then. In fact, if other programming languages don't adapt in the same manner, C and C++ may get a boost due to the transition as people give up on competitors.
The exact EasyLicenser and Orion client library versions to look for are 2.5.11 and 2.0.11, respectively.
