====== MapSuite Developer License Guide ======

===== What is Developer License =====
A developer license is a license for debugging application with Map Suite Components. One developer 
license can be installed on one development machine. We also allows to de-activate a registered developer 
license from a machine and re-activate it on another machine. Without the developer license, the debug process 
cannot continue and throws an invalid license exception.

===== Get a Developer License from Map Suite Product Center =====
Developer License can be generated by “Map Suite Product Center” that is installed along with the 
ThinkGeo.MapSuite nuget package installation. We can either manually open the product center, 
or directly programming with the Map component. We will detect the developer license automatically 
when you start to debug your application. If it is verified that the developer license is missing or invalid, 
Map Suite Product Center will automatically pops up.

For the first time you enter the product center, we will ask you to activate your developer license (Or ask to start evaluation if you are not ThinkGeo customer yet). It will spend few seconds to activate your license online, please be patient during this process. 
Once it activates complete, feel free to click “Continue Debugging” button to continue debugging. See Figure 2.
