Hi
I have written a Symbian exe. it can be started by anybody. I have to restrict this.
So if some one start my exe, my exe ask what is SID and continue the exe only if the SID is known to my exe.

So How can I get SID of an application starts my exe.

Thanks

Re: How to get SID (Secure ID)
How does your exe get started? Directly through AppArc or you provide a dll that exposes such a function? Because you can check RProcess::SecureId() in your dll, but if it's AppArc that is about to launch your server, then most probably you're not able to control it. I'm not sure, though, there might be some resources files that your exe uses in which you can control which other exe can launch you. But I doubt that ...  Huh
