• If you were using InitLicenseFromServer to connect to Dynamsoft server for license verification, then no need to change the license key. But please make sure the device has Internet connection.

• If you were using InitLicenseFromServer + InitLicenseFromLicenseContent to connect to Dynamsoft server once and use the SDK offline, please follow these steps to re-register the device.

• If you were using InitLicenseFromLicenseContent to use the SDK offline, please follow these steps to re-register the device.

From version 6.x

We made some structural updates in the new version. To upgrade from 6.x to 8.x, we recommend you to review our sample code and re-write the barcode scanning module.
