How can you count pirated uses of your software based on the number
of cracks available?
What makes you think every pirated use is a lost sales?
I hope you put enthusiasm similar to your hacker prevention efforts
into developing a good business model / licensing sheme.
In other words, if I let ld include myEncryptProc's definition in
the binary I ship, then any cracker worth his salt can trivially
extract the binary for myEncryptProc() and put it in a shiny new
utility or serial gen.
How about:
void myEncryptProc () {
#ifdef ENCRYPTION_PASS
// do encryption
...
return;
#else
return;
#endif
}
