Unlocking development products on Windows and OS/2

Note:
Any features that were unlocked in the VisualAge Smalltalk Enterprise Version 5.5/5.5.1 image must be unlocked in the VisualAge Smalltalk Enterprise Version 5.5.2 image. Ensure that the unlock tool is pointing to the new VisualAge Smalltalk Enterprise Version 5.5.2 ini file in the image552 directory.

If you have purchased VisualAge Smalltalk Enterprise, you must unlock the product after you install. If you do not unlock the product, you will be using an evaluation version of the product, which will not let you save your image after 30 days.

To unlock VisualAge Smalltalk Enterprise, or any of the purchased features, first start the Unlock utility. Through your Start Menu/Program Files/IBM VisualAge Smalltalk Enterprise Client 5.5/5.5.1 open your Unlock utility. Then do the following:

  1. Designate a target .ini file.
    Note:
    Normally this is abt.ini in the same directory as your image. If you have copied your image and INI file to other directories, you should select Browse to identify the file to be unlocked.
  2. Select Next.

    The Unlock utility now lists the VisualAge Smalltalk Enterprise development products you can unlock.

  3. Select the product(s) you want to unlock.
  4. In the License Agreement window, select your country, then read the license. If you agree with the terms and conditions, select Accept.
    Note:
    If you do not agree with the terms and conditions listed in the License Agreement, select Decline and exit the Unlock Program.
  5. In the Unlock Product window, enter your License number and the Key that you received when you purchased the product.
  6. Select Unlock.

    The Unlock utility confirms that the product is unlocked or provides hints on why the product isn't unlocked.

You must unlock each product you have purchased. If you load an evaluation feature into your image, even if you have unlocked VisualAge, your image will become an evaluation image. When you unload the evaluation feature, your image will still be an evaluation image. For this reason, be sure to unlock all features you have purchased before you load them into your image.
