Silk Meter policies can have warning codes associated with them. The warning code connected to a license may contain the following messages:
All licenses are in use, but because of the relaxed license count a license is still granted.
This license is marked as a demo license.
This license is marked as a laptop license.
This license will expire in less than two weeks.
Warning messages are returned in the above stated order of preference; that is, if a license will expire in less than two weeks and is a demo license, only the warning code regarding the demo license will be returned.
The programmer of the Silk Meter-controlled application can decide how to handle warning codes. The application can, for example, disable functionality or display additional disclaimers for a demo license or warning message if the license is set to expire soon. The method warningReason returns a string describing the warning.
The following table lists the Silk Meter warning codes, along with a brief description:
