[Hoser]

Hello All,
Im looking for ideas on how to design a component detection feature into my softwate product. Specifically check to see if customer has purchased a particular feature component of my software. Just looking for some design idea's that may be standard in the industry.

not sure about standards in the industry, but couldnt you just define a series of booleans, and then detect a certain part of your code that will define whether or not a component is installed, and then set booleans as necessary?

have a good one

Hi Adam,
Good idea, but I'm not sure how to detect a certain part of my code? I'm not very experienced.
