Thanks for the overview Uli, and the pointer towards Security.framework. I'm working my way through the docs, but there's a lot that doesn't seem relevant to my task.
Most of the rest in your outline I've got. However, it's these specific parts I'm struggling with and which prompted my initial question:
> any tutorial on...validating messages will do.
Yes, that's precisely what I'm looking for and don't seem able to find. Can anyone suggest one? I've been all over stackexchange etc, and there seems to be a lot of confusion out there (or, rather, the more I read, the more confused I'm getting).
> You include your public key in your application, and the license-checking code simply decrypts the PList using that.
Yes, I've got the public key in my app. I also have the encrypted licence for the user to insert. Its help with the "simple licence-checking code to do the decrypting" that I need.
I'm going to spend the rest of the day working through the cocoafob and aquaticprime code and see if I can figure out what I need from there, but if anyone has done this themselves recently and can offer some guidance, pseudo-code or link to a tutorial, it'd be much appreciated. Security is not something I've tackled before, so this is a whole new mountain climb for me.
Best
Phil
