Android Question questions: the wear of the flash memory; trial limit; use one licence for more then one programmer

1) Nothing special. I never encountered such an issue (even with older devices).
2) Not sure that I understand. The trial version should only be used for evaluation purposes.
3) No.
4) No.

thx for unswer. but.. i dont use b4a more then year and now i wanna use it
and i have one more question - can i use single licence more then one PC ? (for example: work PC, home PC and notebook)

what are the General restrictions on such use?
if I start the IDE on 2 PCs (by one IPs and by different IPs) - what will be?

p.s. sry for up old topic
p.s.s. u can answer me in pm

As I can understand the best solution is to buy another license and support Anywhere Software in they effort to bring you even better B4x.
This is my private opinion, I'm B4x (B4a, B4i, B4j, B4r) user just like you.

(and i can use only to pc? its little)
on store web-page (https://www.b4x.com/store.html) written:

Licenses are per developer. Each developer requires a single license

Thanks u alot! it is what i need

but, i am an curious person
1) how much time to unbind PC ? (if i dont use this pc anymore (selled)). or if no time to unbind i have 5 activations and then buy new license ?
2) and trick (rhetorical) question: how much distance can bе between PC ?

My two cents about 1) ... NAND flash memory has indeed a limited number of program/erase cycles, but

The same flash (depending on manufacturer) and/or the filesystem which manages it, can have built-in mechanisms to detect and correct single-double (or even more) bit errors per page, which can be due to defects or cells that have been written/erased many times and become defective.
There are also mechanisms to mark bad blocks, which are a small % of the total, so that the user will not worry about it.
Also, most filesystems suitable for NAND (yaffs2, ext-4) take control (also depending on implementation) of which pages have been written in order to improve overall flash life.
Buffering and other strategies are also part of these file systems, which result in faster operations while optimizing flash access.

So only if you design an embedded system and have an unmanaged NAND chip, you would have to worry about which pages have been written more often, care for error correction/detection techniques and so on...

You (one person = licence-holder) can use it on more than one PC (at least two). If you can install it to three PCs i´m not sure.

The best way is to contact support@basic4ppc.com and wait the answer.

I corrected my post, although I would have sworn there was an option with up to 5 machines

Ok, i am understand! If u a single delevoper and use b4a only self - all good)
