webServiceUrl	string	URL to the QLM License Server.
email	string	email address to associate with to the license key - can be empty
features	int[]	4 element array of features. Each element in the array represents a feature set and the value of each element is the OR'ed value of all the enabled features in this feature set. For example: int[] features = new features[4]; features[0] = 1 + 2 + 4; // In feature set 1, Feature 1, Feature 2 and Feature 4 are enabled features[1] = 1 + 4; // In feature set 2, Feature 1 and Feature 4 are enabled features[2] = 2 + 4 + 8; // In feature set 3, Feature 2, Feature 4 and Feature 8 are enabled features[3] = 0; // In feature set 4, no features are enabled
numKeysToCreate	int	the number of licenses to create. Use this option to create large batches of license keys.
numSeats	int	the number of licenses to embed in the key. This controls how many activations are allowed per key.
numFloatingSeats	int	the number of floating seats for concurrent licensing (requires QLM Enterprise).
useMultipleActivationsKey	bool	if set to true and quantity > 1, one license key will be generated for all required licenses. The number of licenses will be embedded in the license key
