Protection |
Elipse Power contains a tool to protect projects or libraries. With this item, users can protect file content against non-authorized edition, visualization, or execution. To use this resource, right-click the project's name in Organizer and select the Protection option.
File protection
This option contains the following types of protection:
•Protection against Edition: Protects a file against non-authorized changes or views. This resource is used to prevent a certain library or object from accidental changes, or from copying specific procedures known only by a developer. Elipse Power provides a control over edition of these projects or libraries
•Protection against Execution: This option is used to protect a file against non-authorized execution. To do so, users must request the recording of a password in a protection device, which is performed by Elipse Software. This protects non-authorized copies of a project, for example
When a library or project file is opened in Elipse Power Studio, it starts by showing a gray icon with a padlock indicating that it is protected and its content cannot be accessed. To access the content of this file, right-click this icon and select the Open with password option. After typing a password and granting access, this icon changes to colored , indicating that this file is now accessible.
IMPORTANT |
These implemented protections cannot be undone in case of password loss. Therefore, when protecting a certain file, users must keep this password in a safe place. This ensures that they can use that file when needed. |
