I've got a couple potential clients for one of my softwares and want to just give them a quick trial version with timebomb and forcing local use (so no shared database). Honestly, the app uses the system date so often that I'm not worried about the dudes resetting the calendar to cheat the trial. If they went that route, it'd be maddening for them so as I said, I don't care about that. However, I do want to ensure that the app only looks locally for it's database in a subfolder (.\data\) of the app's location. I'm thinking checking to make sure the DRIVETYPE(JUSTDRIVE(MyDBCName.dbc)) = 3. Does that sound like a good plan to enforce this constraint?
This is for an app I wrote back in 2003 but am retooling now to use MySQL (MariaDB) on the backend on the web.
