The .slip file stores licensing information for applications developed by CodeGear. It is a support file used by the relevant software rather than a document intended for manual editing.
CodeGear was originally owned by Borland and later became a division of Embarcadero Technologies. Its products included C++Builder, Delphi, JBuilder and InterBase. Embarcadero acquired CodeGear in 2009, while Borland was also acquired by Micro Focus in 2009.
The format is associated with the Microsoft Windows versions of the listed CodeGear applications. It is a legacy licensing format and may still be encountered in installations of older CodeGear products.
Open a .slip file with the CodeGear application that created or uses it, such as C++Builder, Delphi, JBuilder or InterBase on Microsoft Windows.
Because the file contains license data, it is normally read automatically by the relevant application or its licensing system. It should not be edited in a text editor.
A .slip file is licensing data and has no useful document conversion format. The associated CodeGear software should manage the license file directly.
Do not modify or convert the file manually, as doing so may make the license unusable.
