Class License

Create a License object. License objects should be assigned to a variable that stays in scope for the duration the license token should be held. The accepted way to return a license token is by calling the checkin method of the license object, but the token will also be returned when the object is garbage collected.

Parameters:

• license_type (module-level constant) - Module-level constant such as BIOLUMINATE_MAIN, BIOLUMINATE_SHARED, BIOLUMINATE_PROTEIN_DOCKING, MATERIALSCIENCE_MAIN
• num_tokens (int) - The number of tokens to check out
• version (int) - An integer value representing the product version. This is ten times the decimal value with the tenths digit, i.e. 93 for version 9.3. If not provided, the license type is looked up in the module constant DEFAULT_VERSIONS dictionary and that version is used. If license_type is not found in DEFAULT_VERSIONS, the module constant DEFAULT_GENERIC_VERSION is used.
• force (bool) - For the attempted checkout of the license even if license_type is not recognized by this class. If checkout is unsuccessful, no error will be raised, but self.license will be None
