Install VisualGDB on a virtual machine

[Peter127]

Hello,

I’m currently evaluating VisualGDB on my dev-PC and I think I will definitely stick with it. I use it to debug our inhouse application on our custom hardware. I have a stripped down version at my desk. But we have multiple “real” machines. We often use vmware based virtual machines for such circumstances and the idea is to do the same for VisualGDB. We are okay with buying another license for this. So here are the questions:

• Is this Okay with your licensing model in the legal way? A VM is like a PC, just a virtual one and we will not run several copies in parallel (no instance will be alive most of the time to be honest). So it’s like a laptop dedicated for this task lying around most of the time, right?
• Is this Okay with your licensing model in the technical way? What do you check if the PC running VisualGDB is the one who registered it?

Regards

Peter

Hi,

As long as you don’t have more parallel activations of VisualGDB than your license allows and don’t move the VMs between physical machines too often, you’re fine both legally and technically.
