WMRMChallenge Object

The WMRMChallenge object is used to process a challenge from the client. A challenge is a request from the consumer for a license and contains the following information:

  • Version 10 content header (backward compatible with version 7.1):
    • The key ID used to create a key.
    • A content ID to uniquely identify the encrypted content.
    • Attributes that identify the content.
    • A URL identifying the Internet address of the license issuer (the license acquisition URL).
    • The minimum application security version number required to play content.
  • Information about the consumer's computer:
    • An encrypted client ID.
    • The version of Windows Media Rights Manager on the consumer's computer.
    • The individualized version number on the consumer's computer.
    • Information about the secure audio path (SAP) kernel component.
  • An action list indicating the rights requested by the consumer. This list is not included in a challenge if the RMGetLicense.GetLicenseFromURL method is used.
  • An optional Windows Media Rights Manager version 1 challenge This is included because versions of the player earlier than version 7 cannot process version 7 or later licenses. However, it is not included when a license is predelivered.

You must retrieve this information from the challenge before using the WMRMLicGen object to place it in a license. The WMRMChallenge object exposes the following properties and method.
