Hi Quin,
Yes you are correct,
I am trying to design some sort of copy protection for our software. I did
look at the GetPrimaryMacAddress.c example. It seems very straight forward
in terms of the code complexity, however I could not figure out how to get
that compiled on CodeWarrior since it uses the following:
#include <CoreFoundation/CoreFoundation.h>
#include <IOKit/IOKitLib.h>
#include <IOKit/network/IOEthernetInterface.h>
#include <IOKit/network/IONetworkInterface.h>
#include <IOKit/network/IOEthernetController.h>
Any ideas how to get it to work on CodeWarrior since the sample is a Project
Builder project?
Pavan,
it depends. If your project is Mach-O then it should be very easy
to compile it even in CodeWarrior. You just drop IOKit.framework to
your project, turn on "[X] Use Framework Style Includes" and that is.
The problem pops up if your project is CFM because you have to use
either CFM<->Mach-O glue (provided in sample code) since IOKit is not
accessible directly from CFM
*or*
compile the IOKit code as a bundle with ProjectBuilder, for example,
export few routines from it and then use CFBundle API to load that
bundle, get function pointers and execute them without any problems.
