Mac OS X development is a fairly new animal for me, and I'm in the process of porting over some software. For software licensing and registration I need to be able to generate some kind of hardware ID. It doesn't have to be anything fancy; Ethernet MAC address, hard drive serial, CPU serial, something like that.
I've got it covered on Windows, but I haven't a clue on Mac. Any idea of what I need to do, or where I can go for information on this would be great!
Edit:
For anybody else that is interested in this, this is the code I ended up using with Qt's QProcess class:
QProcess proc;
QStringList args;
args << "-c" << "ioreg -rd1 -c IOPlatformExpertDevice | awk '/IOPlatformUUID/ { print $3; }'";
proc.start( "/bin/bash", args );
proc.waitForFinished();
QString uID = proc.readAll();
Note: I'm using C++.
