licensing

[Joël]

Hi !
I want to create a licensed component.
I use the LicFileLicenseProvider class as parameter of the LicenseProvider
attribute.
Finaly I use the LicenseManager into my component as describe into the msdn
documentation.
Unfortunatly the next steps are evasive.
What to do next ? I think I need to create something like a license file but
how ? which format ?
I try to create a .LIC file but when I use my licensed component into an
host application the license validation procedure always fails.
I will be grateful for any help or doc reference.
