A base class for online unlocking systems.
This class stores information about whether your app has been unlocked for the current machine, and handles communication with a web-store to perform the unlock procedure.
You probably won't ever use this base class directly, but rather a store-specific subclass such as TracktionMarketplaceStatus, which knows how to talk to the particular online store that you're using.
To use it, you create a subclass which implements all the pure virtual methods (see their comments to find out what you'll need to make them do).
Then you can create an instance of your subclass which will hold the registration state. Typically, you'll want to just keep a single instance of the class around for the duration of your app. You can then call its methods to handle the various registration tasks.
Areas of your code that need to know whether the user is registered (e.g. to decide whether a particular feature is available) should call isUnlocked() to find out.
If you want to create a GUI that allows your users to enter their details and register, see the OnlineUnlockForm class.

juce::OnlineUnlockStatus::OnlineUnlockStatus | ( | ) |
|
virtual |
Destructor.
Attempts to perform an unlock using a block of key-file data provided.
You may wish to use this as a way of allowing a user to unlock your app by drag-and-dropping a file containing the key data, or by letting them select such a file. This is often needed for allowing registration on machines without internet access.
UnlockResult juce::OnlineUnlockStatus::attemptWebserverUnlock | ( | const String & | email, |
const String & | password | ||
) |
Contacts the webserver and attempts to perform a registration with the given user details.
The return value will either be a success, or a failure with an error message from the server, so you should show this message to your user.
Because this method blocks while it contacts the server, you must run it on a background thread, not on the message thread. For an easier way to create a GUI to do the unlocking, see OnlineUnlockForm.
|
pure virtual |
This must check whether a product ID string that the server returned is OK for unlocking the current app.
Implemented in juce::TracktionMarketplaceStatus.
|
inline |
Returns the Time when the keyfile expires.
If a the key file obtained has an expiry time, isUnlocked will return false and this will return a non-zero time. The interpretation of this is up to your app but could be used for subscription based models or trial periods.
|
virtual |
Returns a list of strings, any of which should be unique to this physical computer.
When testing whether the user is allowed to use the product on this machine, this list of tokens is compared to the ones that were stored on the webserver.
The default implementation of this method will simply call MachineIDUtilities::getLocalMachineIDs(), which provides a default version of this functionality.
|
virtual |
|
virtual |
|
pure virtual |
This must return your product's ID, as allocated by the store.
|
pure virtual |
This must return the RSA public key for authenticating responses from the server for this app.
You can get this key from your marketplace account page.
|
pure virtual |
Returns the URL of the authentication API.
Implemented in juce::TracktionMarketplaceStatus.
|
pure virtual |
This method must retrieve the last state that was provided by the saveState method.
On first-run, it should just return an empty string.
String juce::OnlineUnlockStatus::getUserEmail | ( | ) | const |
Returns the user's email address if known.
|
pure virtual |
Returns the name of the web-store website, not for communication, but for presenting to the user.
Implemented in juce::TracktionMarketplaceStatus.
|
private |
|
private |
|
inline |
Returns true if the product has been successfully authorised for this machine.
The reason it returns a variant rather than a bool is just to make it marginally more tedious for crackers to work around. Hopefully if this method gets inlined they'll need to hack all the places where you call it, rather than just the function itself.
Bear in mind that each place where you check this return value will need to be changed by a cracker in order to unlock your app, so the more places you call this method, the more hassle it will be for them to find and crack them all.
void juce::OnlineUnlockStatus::load | ( | ) |
Attempts to load the status from the state retrieved by getState().
Call this somewhere in your app's startup code.
|
pure virtual |
Subclasses that talk to a particular web-store will implement this method to contact their webserver and attempt to unlock the current machine for the given username and password.
The return value is the XML text from the server which contains error information and/or the encrypted keyfile.
Implemented in juce::TracktionMarketplaceStatus.
void juce::OnlineUnlockStatus::save | ( | ) |
Triggers a call to saveState which you can use to store the current unlock status in your app's settings.
|
pure virtual |
This method must store the given string somewhere in your app's persistent properties, so it can be retrieved later by getState().
void juce::OnlineUnlockStatus::setUserEmail | ( | const String & | usernameOrEmail | ) |
Optionally allows the app to provide the user's email address if it is known.
You don't need to call this, but if you do it may save the user typing it in.
|
virtual |
This method will be called if the user cancels the connection to the webserver by clicking the cancel button in OnlineUnlockForm::OverlayComp.
The default implementation of this method does nothing but you should use it to cancel any WebInputStreams that may be connecting.
Reimplemented in juce::TracktionMarketplaceStatus.
