"RTI Connext DDS No Source for License information" error

Hi, I encountered the following problem while attempting the "Hello World" example shown in RTI Connext C# documentation. It appears that the error is cause by licensing problem. However, as you can see in the image, I've successfully linked my license via the RTI Launcher and it acknowledged it.

I have read some of the forum replies but none of them are specific enough to help with my issue. Appreciate any help and guidance on this.

Hi,

You can trigger this error, for example, when using an “eval” license. With this kind of license there is a runtime license check made against the applications. This license check is different from the one made by RTI Launcher. So, even though you have your license successfully registered within the RTI Launcher, that registration will not be valid when running your user applications. In that case, the application’s call to DomainParticipantFactory.create_participant() will return null, preventing communication.

Please take a look at the following KB article to see how to properly configure the license information to be used in your application:
