    Abstract: A method and apparatus for enforcing software licenses for resource libraries such as an application program interface (API), a toolkit, a framework, a runtime library, a dynamic link library (DLL), an applet (e.g., a Java or ActiveX applet), or any other reusable resource. The resource library can be used by authorized end user software programs. A “per-program” licensing scheme for a resource library can allow a resource library to be licensed only for use with particular software programs.

    Abstract translation: 用于为诸如应用程序接口(API),工具包,框架,运行时库,动态链接库(DLL),小应用程序(例如Java或ActiveX小应用程序)的资源库执行软件许可的方法和装置, ,或任何其他可重用资源。 资源库可以由授权的最终用户软件程序使用。 资源库的“每程序”许可方案可以允许资源库被许可仅用于特定的软件程序。
