Stand Alone JMP JSL Encryption

What inspired this wish list request? The need to automate JSL encryption

 

 

What is the improvement you would like to see?

1) A way to get around the login requirements when running tasks without direct user interaction.

2) A stand-alone package (DLL, etc) that can be called outside JMP completely but which can encrypt the file with JMPs proprietary encryption algorithm -- this would also make it easier to encrypt as an automated deployment of tools without the need of stand alone computers.

 

Why is this idea important? I have desktop computer I use to run some automated tasks in JMP with - typically with windows scheduler.

With the new method of logins with JMP 18, if I log into another PC (assuming the desktop is the 2nd one currently logged into) I will have to re-log into the desktop or the scheduled tasks will fail.

JMP 18 is also the first version where the JSL encryption function works correctly so that automated encryption is possible. Why does it need to be automated? It's part of the deployment of JMP addins from github where the code is created in github but when packaged it would be encrypted so the end user wouldn't have access.

Thanks for the input on this.  For authorization issues, the best point of contact is JMP Technical support.  We take the idea to allow encryption of a JSL script with a JSL function under consideration.
