Hi All,
Infineon are promoting Keil C51 tools...
Can some advise what the license agreement is..
www.infineon.com/.../index.html
Part of the web site says ========================== #No software limitations #Free Keil Web Forum support #License is valid 3 month after activation ===========
Does that mean no software limitations for 3 months ... what happens after the licence expires.... Is there still no software limitations?
I downloaded and installed these Keil tools... but there is no indication about "No software limitations" and "License is valid 3 month after activation"
Does any one know.... the information in the Infineon web site is a little unclear....
Thanks in advance Joe

This one is quite cute: #Free Keil Web Forum support
You will have free Keil web forum support even if you do not buy something.
... when you click on the link to register for your free 3 months, you will get to see the full terms & conditions?
... and that has to be Infineon themselves, doesn't it?
It's Infineon's deal, so they make the rules - so ask them.
"what happens after the licence expires.... Is there still no software limitations?"
With a real Keil licence, the tools continue to work but you can no longer install updates, you are no longer entitled to support, and you wouldn't be able to re-install the tools if you needed to.
Take a look at this thread: http://www.keil.com/forum/docs/thread14415.asp it shows how important it is to ask the supplier directly if you have any doubts at all about the offer - it's no help guessing or surmising!
Ok... "there's no such thing as a free lunch"... but what are the exact limitations? Can you be more specific?
Often tool vendors will limit the code size or something else.... but I can't find it in the doc's
