Application protection (Hardware key support)

Post by ibax »

Hello,

I'm thinking about a solution, to protect my application with a hardware key (usb dongle). For example: http://www.matrixlock.de/english/index.htm
Did anybody try such protection? What are your experiences? What is supported by Irrlicht?

OR

Can I parse somehow cmd outputs? For example I could use the C: drive ID or the mac address as unique identifier... What is supported or what is the best solution for an application protection from Irrlicht point of view?

Code: Select all

Sorry, that's outside the scope of Irrlicht. Dongles should come with their own SDK which you use then.
