Hello, my application interoperate with many, many different other machines/other applications. I usually let the users input somewhere the connection string to the machine to connect, and I open a new datacontext at runtime, using the connection string i found in the machine's specific settings.

I cannot add the licence key in every connection string, they're like 200+ on different production servers. And on top of that, the idea of updating it yearly, every license renew, is crazy.

I see that for dotconnect there's a static method to call once at startup. That would be a viable way.

Let me know, downgrading to 4.9 in the meanwhile. If the only way will remain the connection string one i'm afraid I'll have to find alternatives, after 10+ years with you.

Or maybe there already is another way i'm missing, i don't know.

Let me know

thanks in advance
