Remarks

This overload of AcquireLicenseAsync generates a license challenge which only works with Silverlight 5.

This overload of AcquireLicenseAsync creates an asynchronous license acquisition challenge in which no content key type or key ID set is sent in the challenge to the server. To provide the license server the requisite information to generate the needed license, it is recommended that service implementers use custom data, custom headers, or implement a custom protocol.

This overload of AcquireLicenseAsync is intended for use in scenarios where the root license does not have a traditional Key ID/Algorithm ID pair or the client does not have data about the root license ahead of time. It is expected that the license server logic would be able to determine the correct license to provide in the response based upon customer data.

The serviceId parameter is an optional parameter which may be used when acquiring a domain bound license.
