How does Ranger verify that my plug-in is digitally signed?

Prior to loading your plug-in, Ranger will verify that your plug-in is signed with Silver Bullet's digital signature.  ilver Bullet will sign the released version of your plug-in after it passes Ranger certification testing.

There is one exception to this case. If a Ranger developer license file is present, Ranger will load your plug-in even if it is not signed. This allows you to make changes to your plug-in prior to Ranger certification testing.

You're not allowed to give your Ranger developer license file to customers or other companies without written permission from Silver Bullet.
