    Activation code required

    Hello everybody

    I`ve been writing this simple game for some time now and I`d like to have a rudimentary form of protection for it. Some sort of activation. The game has been written in c++, using the Visual C++ 6 compiler, so the activation code must be in c++. Any ideas to get me started???

    thx, in advance

    Store all valid activation code in file, database or container.
    When user typed in, just do a checking. (My 2 cents).Not confirm correct.
    Thanks for your help.

    Get Microsoft Visual C++ Express here or CodeBlocks here.
    Get STLFilt here to radically improve error messages when using the STL.
    Get these two can't live without C++ libraries, BOOST here and Loki here.
    Check your code with the Comeau Compiler and FlexeLint for standards compliance and some subtle errors.
    Always use [code] code tags [/code] to make code legible and preserve indentation.
    Do not ask for help writing destructive software such as viruses, gamehacks, keyloggers and the suchlike.
