Figure 1.1 License Authorization
Enter the License Authorization Code and select an ethernet address from the Node lock
ID for license list, if one exists. After entering the authorization code, the CodeWarrior
IDE will make an HTTP call to the CodeWarrior licensing server with the activation code and generate the permanent license keys. The resulting license keys are automatically updated into the license.dat text file of the CodeWarrior product executing the authorization. You can also manually edit the license.dat file per instructions provided in the License_Install.txt file in the root folder of your CodeWarrior installation path. If the
IDE evaluation period expires prior to activation, you will have to manually edit the license.dat file.
Documentation Structure
CodeWarrior products include an extensive documentation library of user guides, targeting manuals, and reference manuals. Take advantage of this library to learn how to efficiently develop software using the CodeWarrior programming environment.
Documentation Formats

• Print—Printed versions of CodeWarrior manuals, including the IDE User’s Guide,
MSL C Reference, C/C++ Reference, and product-focused
Targeting manuals.
• PDF (Portable Document Format)—Electronic versions of CodeWarrior manuals.
