Clarification regarding multi-user, multi-thread usage

I have read many notes regarding this topic on the forums. I need clarification regarding multi-user, multi-thread using the developer version of PDF Converter 2.50.

NOTE: We want to develop a SINGLE set of PDF enabled programs that will run 1) single-user, 2) multi-user (e.g. Citrix), and 3) multi-thread (web IIS via CGI).

My question...
If we simply implement the CDINTF locking calls in our programs, will this be enough to support the above 3 environments.

OR do we ALSO have to use the "per-user license" for the multi-user environment.
I don't see how the per-user license would work in a CGI web (multi-threaded) environment because my understanding is that all web CGI requests effectively run as the same user.

Has anyone else successfully used PDF converter in all of these environments using the locking calls. Do Joan/Jose have any comments that would clarify this topic for others.

Ross.

Hello,

The locking mechanism is enough in this case.

The per user settings license is needed if you are using an End User version of the PDF Converter in a muti-users environment.

Hope this helps.
