So here is the scenario: You have already tested your in-app purchase code in the sandbox environment and everything went perfectly. Your app is now "Ready for Sale" and you want to make sure in-app purchases work flawlessly prior to actually letting your app hit the app store. To try this, I downloaded a "pre-release" version from...
Hello, I need to know where/how Windows stores the command that passes the URL clicked in a non-browser program (i.e. Thunderbird) and launches it in the systems default browser. I need that information to write a script that allows me to have a browser running in a secure sand boxed virtual machine, but still retain the functionality o...
I am trying to run a program compiled from C code from an unknown source. I want to make sure that the program does not harm my system in anyway. Like for instance, the program might have soemthing like system("rm -rf /") in the source, which is un-detectable, unless the code is thoroughly examined. I thought of the following 2 ways ...
Hi, I would like to make a contest for my iPhone and iPad apps users. I would like to give some bonus content for winners as a reward. Normally that content is paid (for eg. additional levels) and it's available via in-app purchase, so I'm trying to find any way to give them something like normal promo codes. (Promo codes are not workin...

I copy some text files from a server to the NSDocumentDirectory on the iPad. One of the files has a .sql extension. They all store correctly and everything works OK, except there's one puzzling thing: When I delete the application from the iPad (make it wiggle and hit the X), all the existing files get deleted (as I'd expect) except fo...

How can protecting my server from malicious activity when accepting and executing uploaded, untrusted code? The users should be able to implement my interface and given data, perform some calculations and return data. No I/O operations are required and certainly no thread/process manipulation or other tomfoolery. Using the java.policy ...
Is there a way to sandbox a linux process into a certain directory, and give this process exclusive rw access to this dir? For example, create a temporary working directory, and start e.g. python or another scripting tool in such a way that it can only write in this directory, without limiting too much of its functionality. And also that...
Hi, I have some shared/dynamic libraries installed in a sandbox directory. I'm building some applications which link agains the libraries. I'm running into what appears to be a difference between OSX and Linux in this regard and I'm not sure what the (best) solution is. On OSX the location of library itself is recorded into the library...
Is it possible to share on-disk data between iOS applications, or are they truly sandboxed? In other words if I wanted to make a shared repository of data to be accessed (and/or modified) by one or more of my apps, could it be done? One of the listings on the iOS features page is "Share Data Among Apps", but is this what I'm looking for...
I'd like to write a sandbox virtual machine for executing a compiled program. My goal is to isolate that program from the rest of operating system and control its execution so that it can't do anything harmful to a host computer. I assume that: executed program is compiled to Portable Executable format and it's in machine code, not i...
