(v13) Security issues
This page applies to Harlequin v13.1r0 and later; and to Harlequin MultiRIP but not Harlequin Core
For commercial purposes, it may be necessary to restrict some plugins to work only with particular customer versions of the RIP.
Global Graphics may make such a restriction when developing a plugin for you, to ensure that the plugin can be run only with your version of the RIP. You may also wish to create such restrictions yourself, so that your plugin runs only with your version of the RIP, or you may include certain customer RIPs, should you wish to sell it to others.
When a plugin is initialized, the RIP asks it about its security requirements. Your plugin can declare its requirements at this time. See (v13) D_SECURITY .
