License Information

License Type

Before being unlocked, the Free Edition license is in effect. The Free Edition does not allow customizing converter output and command line conversion.

When unlocked with a valid registration code issued by Tangible Software Solutions, the Premium Edition license is in effect. The Premium Edition licenses are one-year licenses. One year after the last purchase date, the converter will default to the Free Edition until a new license is purchased.

We moved to one-year licenses effective December 3 2018. If you purchased before this date, you can continue to use the last version that you were entitled to under the previous perpetual license (i.e., the last version available within one year of your purchase), however Tangible Software Solutions only makes old perpetual license versions available for 5 years. One-year licenses are in effect for all purchases on or after December 3 2018.


Typical EULA

The EULA is shown as one of the install steps and is also available from the 'Help' menu after the converter is installed. The same license agreement is used for both the Free Edition and Premium Edition.

The following is the typical EULA for each of our converters:

License Agreement

You should carefully read the following terms and conditions before using this software. Your use of this software indicates your acceptance of this license agreement.

Free Edition vs Premium Edition License

Before being unlocked, the Free Edition license is in effect. The Free Edition allows a single person to use the software on one or more computers, but has some feature restrictions.

When unlocked with a valid registration code issued by Tangible Software Solutions, the Premium Edition license is in effect. The Premium Edition allows a single person to use the software on one or more computers without the restrictions of the Free Edition.

The Premium Edition license is a one-year subscription license which includes updates (access to the latest version) and support. Support only applies to the latest version of the converter.

One year after your last purchase date, the converter will default to the Free Edition until you purchase a new subscription license.

Tangible Software Solutions has the right to invalidate an existing registration code and revoke the Premium Edition license if a refund is issued or the terms of this agreement are violated by the user.

Use of the Software

You are not authorized to modify or reverse-engineer this software. You are not authorized to distribute this software. Valid copies of this software are only available through Tangible Software Solutions.

Tangible Software Solutions places no ownership claim or restriction on any portion of the conversion output. Helper classes inserted by the converter have copyright notices, but these classes can be freely used provided that the copyright notices remain intact.

Ownership of the source code is not changed by conversion to another programming language. The user should recognize that the original source code ownership applies to the converted code also.

You are not authorized to display any portion of the converter output in another automated conversion utility.

Governing Law

The laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada shall govern this agreement.

Disclaimer of Warranty

This software is sold "as is" and without warranties as to performance or accuracy or any other warranties whether expressed or implied. Because of the diverse hardware and software environments into which the converter may be placed, no warranty of fitness for a particular purpose is offered.

Most conversions of source code may require many adjustments to the conversion output since some of the complexity or ambiguity of the original source code may be unresolved by the converter. Comments may be inserted into the output to indicate some of the adjustments that cannot be handled by the converter; some adjustments may be indicated by the source code compiler when attempting to compile the converted code; and testing may reveal that further adjustments are required to achieve the same results as the original source code.

The converter does not delete any of the original source code, and Tangible Software Solutions strongly advises that the original source code not be deleted. Any program must be thoroughly tested before relying on it. The user must assume the entire risk of using the program. Any liability of the seller will be limited exclusively to improving the software and making new versions available or refunding the license purchase price. Improvement of the software will be at the discretion of Tangible Software Solutions.

Extended Support License

The Extended Support license includes 25 hours of dedicated support: This includes time spent dealing with bug fixes and enhancements related to conversion logic and suggested UI features or options. It does not include time spent dealing with issues where the converter UI is not behaving as intended — these types of issues are always handled by Tangible Software Solutions, regardless of license type. All requested changes are at the discretion of Tangible Software Solutions and all changes must be considered applicable to our general customer base. The 25 hours of dedicated support expires after one year, when the license expires, regardless of whether 25 hours were required or not.

The Extended Support license also includes priority new versions: Instead of implementing changes at the next scheduled release, we will release new versions incrementally as quickly as possible to allow customers' conversion efforts to proceed with minimal delay. This will depend on the complexity of the requested change.

The support limitations outlined on our website at https://www.tangiblesoftwaresolutions.com/support.html apply to both regular licenses and the Extended Support licenses. We can only address issues that are demonstrated in isolated samples that do not require us to reproduce a specific development or runtime environment and do not require us to install any software.
