Scriptcase 7 Discussion

Hello
As I can protect an application developed with ScriptCase, illegal copying, I mean the end php code to market.
Thank you.

The only way is other software like zend or other software. That’s the way scriptase itself hides the source code.

And somehow get the number of the hard disk, in order to generate a code and encrypt it.

PHP itself has no way of accessing the hardware like that.

You will have to either:

  • use a command of your operating system and call it with system() or exec()
  • write an extension for PHP that will return you the information

If you are on Linux and have the necessary privileges and configuration you can use $r = system(“hdparm -I /dev/hda”); (replace hda with your hd) to get the serial number of a given hard drive.
