This is the abstract base class for licenses that can be granted to a component. It provides a LicenseKey property, which returns a string representing the license for the component. You must also implement the Dispose() member.

A License is returned by the LicenseProvider.GetLicense() method when a valid license is available for a particular object in the current LicenseContext.

See LicenseManager for more information on licensing.
