Hello All,
I wonder if somebody knows how the following can be done. If we build
a VB application that uses a third party software(an EXE file) that
will be licensed to us, and the way things will be is that the VB
application launches the EXE file at some point. The problem is that
to do that, that file has to be on disk. Though we can delete that
file after processing is done, the file will be avaliable for the user
to copy/use without having the license. This EXE files needs a couple
of other auxiliary files that it writes to while running.
Now, can we do any of the following:
1- embed the software EXE file in the gui EXE we will build, and
"somehow" launch it without having it available to the user?
2- Use a RAM disk that gives no access to the user so that the gui
launch the EXE file in RAM and work from there.
Bottom line is that we have to make this in a way that gives the user
no access to the third part EXE file that will be licensed to us.
Any help is most appreciated,
Thanks,
Ahmed
