Multi developer license problem in VS.NET2005. Licenses.licx

We are tree developers working on the same Visual Studio 2005 project using TeeChart Pro for VS.NET and SourceSafe as source control system.

To be able to ship the application to users we have added following line to the licenses.licx file:

Steema.TeeChart.TChart, TeeChart, Version=2.0.2179.21171, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=9c8126276c77bdb7

When one of us makes changes to a TeeChart object in Design view, VS want's to check out the Licenses.licx for changes.

Why is changes to the Licenses.licx file needed????

We are all using the same version of TeeChart (version 2.0.2179.21171) but installed TeeChart using a personal license key for each developer.

How can we solve this problem?

Hello,

Once created, changes don't need to be (and generally aren't) made to Licenses.licx. I'm not sure why Sourcesafe should need to check it out, though Sourcesafe probably checks out other files that go unchanged too. If there is a way to exclude Licenses.licx from source control via its own configuration then that might be one possibility to avoid the checking-out.

Does the fact that it checks out the file cause a problem? I assume it still compiles ok.
