Description

Indicates whether a particular Daylight product is licensed.

The parameter 'check_what' indicates what type of license is to be checked:

     DX_SERVER_LICENSE     check a server's license

The parameter 'product' is the name of the product that is being tested; e.g. for toolkits it might be "smiles" or "thor"; for programs it might be "thormanager"; for servers it might be "merlin"; for databases it might be "wdi94".

Return Value

On failure (the product is not licensed, or the license is expired, or the product is licensed but does not match the type specified by 'check_what'), returns zero. On success returns the following, depending on 'check_what': 
     DX_TOOLKIT_LICENSE    Returns 1 if the toolkit is licensed.
     DX_PROGRAM_LICENSE    Returns 1 if the program is licensed.
     DX_SERVER_LICENSE     Returns the number of users authorized.
     DX_DATABASE_LICENSE   Returns the number of users authorized.
