Your COBOL product can be associated with two different types of licenses: development licenses and deployment licenses.
Development licenses govern the use of development tools, such as the COBOL compiler itself. Without a development license, you can't use Studio Enterprise Edition for UNIX.
Deployment licenses (or Server Enterprise Edition licenses) control the run-time execution of compiled programs and applications. Deployment licenses can be thought of as "run-time licenses". Without deployment licenses, compiled programs and applications cannot run.
The help topics in this section describe development licenses. For run-time licensing, see Deployment Licensing.
