Does the Framework Include Licensing Support?

Hello

I see that .NET is big on security, so does it include any support for software license management, such as time-limited demos, or functionally-limited demos, or license revokation

Microsoft has made sure that their software is protected from piracy, I'm curious to know if they extend any of this capability to us little guys

Thanks

It has a subset of licensing facilities for components, but nothing that
approaches things like commercial demos and things like that.

You'll have to either buy or build your own.
