I found the following on the SIMPOL website.

http://www.simpol.com/developer_business.html

"The SIMPOL API set and database functionality are presented as software
components or objects that can be integrated directly into third party
applications. Professional developers, independent software vendors
(ISVs) and OEMs wishing to distribute applications built using SIMPOL
Professional will need to distribute these component with their application.

The SIMPOL Professional license allows developers to distribute the
SIMPOL run-time library with trial (feature-limited) versions of SIMPOL
database components and connectors. Features and limits are controlled
by means of an external license key. Users requiring unlimited
functionality will need to obtain the appropriate license key.

Could you clarify what this page is talking about?
