These are some of the more common questions regarding Trial Maker. A more updated version of this FAQ is posted online on the Trial Maker webpage at www.wtdt.com.

 

       Yes. We build and release Trial Maker on a biweekly (twice a month) sprint. Although releases may not be public people who request a feature or bug fix will get early access to that specific build for testing in their environment.

 

       We will keep Trial Maker up to date and adding trial functionality to meet the needs of our customers. Trial Maker will not turn into an expense licensing suite, and will remain a low cost way for companies to implement trial functionality in their applications.

 

       The 'Any Cpu' platform configuration in Visual Studio is not supported by Trial Maker. This is because the 'Any Cpu' directive changes the bit'ness that the JIT'er compiles from the raw IL. This makes the executable or assembly image either 32 bit or 64 bit depending on the machine or process that launched the JIT'er. Setting your applications, or at least your entry point application to 32 bit or 64 bit will allow the reference to maintain intact.

 

       Trial Maker utilizes the SqLite database system and Microsoft's Entity Framework. Because of this the System.Data.SqLite data provider needs to be registered with ADO.Net data provider. If you are already using SqLite in your project and have the block in your project there should be nothing that needs to be changed.
