Again, many thanks, Benjamin. Per your suggestion I've added the CoreFoundation code to my project, and am using the example code in the main.c file as a base to making some necessary adjustments.
I'm sure a lack of knowledge is the culprit here, but I'm having some problems getting the code from the main.c file to compile. Specifically, the CF-based string obfuscation is throwing an "CFString literal expression is not constant" error. I originally took that to mean I couldn't add it to a method in the @implementation section of my class, but placing it in a function outside the class results in the same error. I'll continue to search through the web for solutions, but if you happen to have any suggestions on the best way to incorporate this I'm all ears. Many thanks for your help to this point. :-) Best, Jonathan NimbleHost.com --- In [email protected], Benjamin Rister <b...@...> wrote: > > The issues you're seeing are because, unlike the instructions you're > referencing assume, your built product isn't the actual application, so your > copy of the framework can't be located via offsets from the application. > > However, rather than mucking with that, let me instead suggest that you > include the AP source file in your project and just compile it in.
