Simple copy protection done right :)

[myhomestudio]

@Lindon yes I have done, read documentation and post but don’t understand what code use where place it ?

[Lindon]

@myhomestudio

So this code:
https://github.com/christophhart/hise_tutorial/blob/master/SimpleCopyProtection/Scripts/Authorisation.js

needs to be added to your init

you will also need this line:

include("Serials.js");

and a file called Serials.js in your project folder that looks like this:

var serials = {
"Data": [
"a string here",
"another string here",
"diiferent string here",
"etc",
"etc..."
]
};

replacing each of the silly text here with a set of serial strings like:

1234-1223-2234-2312

you will need to create all the UI widgets and the mute processor and name them:

const var SerialInput = Content.getComponent("SerialInput");
const var Description = Content.getComponent("Description");
const var SerialStateLabel = Content.getComponent("SerialStateLabel");
const var AuthorisationDialogue = Content.getComponent("AuthorisationDialogue");
const var GlobalMute = Synth.getMidiProcessor("GlobalMute");

--all this is in the tutorial https://github.com/christophhart/hise_tutorial/tree/master/SimpleCopyProtection

@Lindon ok many thx i do that

[myhomestudio]

@Lindon

So I was able to compile the vst with all elements, but no serial number match.

I Have copied the (existing) Serials.js file in the script folder of my Hise Project, is it right ?

[Lindon]

@myhomestudio look inside Serials.js for a correct code...

After inserting the correct serial and successfully registering a plugin and then hit compile, I am getting an error on this line.
The one in the code window.

if(pData)
{
local v = pData.Serial;
Console.print("Restored serial: " + v);

if(serials.Data.contains(v))

{
setValidLicense(true);
return;
}

[Lindon]

@lalalandsynth - whats the error?

[lalalandsynth]

oops , sorry , the error is Interface:! Line 365, column 37: Unknown function 'contains

which is this line

if(serials.Data.contains(v))

[Lindon]

@lalalandsynth so debug... replace

if(serials.Data.contains(v))

with

Console.print(serials.Data);

I followed the directions exactly (I think) but i keep getting this message when I compile..

Serials.js (2): Found ':' when expecting ';' {SW50ZXJmYWNlfFNlcmlhbHMuanN8MTF8Mnw5}

anyone know why?

[ustk]

@BWSounds Yep I know! because ':' has been found when ';' was expected on line 2 in Serial.js… This one was hard

[BWSounds]

@ustk ohh duh, the js file... man I feel slow

[ustk]

@BWSounds In fact there seems to be something weird, because ':' is at the right place, wich means a ';' might be missing somewhere else before serials is called…

[BWSounds]

Ok, new problem (which prob. is a simple fix) but iv'e been compiling ALL DAY and my codes work in hise but once i compile none are working in the vsti.

I seen someone have the same issue but the response was deleted, so im guessing the fix is easy... I just cant figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
