How get Advantage Database Server installed license count in Delphi Code

I would like to be able to get the number of installed user licenses for an Advantage Database Server instance in code using Delphi. I have found a function that lets me get the installed version, ie. ACE.AdsMgGetInstallInfo(dm.AdsConnection1.handle,@stInstallInfo,@usSize);, but not anything that lets me check the license count.

Solution

  • The ACE.AdsMgGetInstallInfo API call you mentioned should be the correct call.

    After the call the appropriate info is in the ADS_MGMT_INSTALL_INFO structure (@stInstallInfo in your example). The field you're looking for is an UNSIGNED32 called ulMaxStatefulUsers.
