... keys, salt etc. are generated at runtime and depend on the login and other mechanisms.
If you forget the password, the data will be lost.

Thx for the tip, but ... no, building my own control is out of question. Then I would prefer to use an
external (grid) control or I change the programming language ;-)

I think/hope there is a way to change the contents of the cell. Using CocoaMessageI I can change the formatting,
color and even ...

I would like to display different images in the first three columns (16x16px each) of ListIconGadget.
Is this possible using cocoa ? Any ideas ?

Thx in advance!

... that is basically right, but my tables are encrypted. At the moment there is only one (readable) column for primary key and one
additional column for encrypted informations. So you cannot get any usable informations or column names from database.

The question was not only because ...

Hi, found another way to hide strings in exe file:

1. You can use constants instead of strings when possible (Win, Mac)

2. You can use packer for exe files like Molebox, Mpress, ... (Win)
I don't know if there is also a packer for Mac.

Regards

Thank you !
x64dbg is ok for my purpose.

sorry, my mistake

The real question is: Do you just want to obfuscate the strings so they are not easily readable or do you want perfect security? The latter is only possible by using an encryption key that does not exist in the executable but has to be entered every time you start the application or something ...

Thanks for the answers, I'll test it out. But this helps ...

@BarryG
I think this solution is not working for MAC ?

Is it possible to display images in different cells of a ListIconGadget without using windows api ?

Hi,
many strings and also SQL-Statements are stored as a readable string in an exe file. I want to avoid that.

Is there a workaround so that e.g. SQL statements are not recognizable as text ?

Does anyone know an easy debugger for Windows 7 x64 without the need for a java runtime etc. ?
I want to check memory, etc after running the executable.
Thx!

Hi HeXOR,
thanks for the information, I know the thread and your code works really fine on windows - good stuff!

I used libcurl because my application runs on Windows and MAC and I didn't find the necessary libs for libTLS for MAC ;-)
Furthermore libcurl is part of macOS... and I didn't want to ...

That is clear. This shouldn't be the complete code with loop, but just show that a login is required every time you use curl_easy...

but thanks for the info...

Thanks for the info.

Your example shows normal usage of curl_easy. This works for me too (runs in its own thread).
The Problem: Every time you receive a message, a new login is performed (see code below).


curl = curl_easy_init()
If curl
; Set username and password
curl_easy_setopt_str(curl ...
