I have a legit licensed version of Xojo 2025 r3.1 that I
have been using for weeks without concern. I have downloaded the source for XMCP
from git hub. When I try to compile it however, I’m told “A
Xojo license is required to build this project.” – on the exact same machine. I have removed and reinstalled my license based on advice from another forum post to no avail.
The license is “Desktop, Database Servers” It’s the $500 purchase.
The project is set to compile for This Computer which is a mac.
Code written in it and my older code all compile fine.
XMCP was written specifically for MacOs
XMCP is a Console Project.
And Console Apps are not included in the Desktop licence.
You might have a chance to use the code from that project - and embed it in a new Desktop application project so that you can build it.
Similar to Express, which is also commonly used as a Console application. But there’s also a Desktop app as a demo, which just uses the same logic classes within a desktop app.
The type of project is a Console project (like Web or iOS/Mobile) and your license is only for Desktop (Mac/Windows/Linux). Desktop doesn’t include Console, only Pro does.
I thought Jürg was mentioning an extension, but it’s just the confusing acronym that this project is named I deleted my post to avoid misinforming anyone with my misunderstanding.
