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
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
Joe
... 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!
... when you click on the link to register for your free 3 months, you will get to see the full terms & conditions?
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.
