Hi, I am going to install executable file of my code to a computer but I do not want somebody copying it and using in another computer. Is there a way to avoid that? For example making the code read the MAC address and control with MAC address that is in the code (I will get the MAC address in advance)?

And also make the program unuseable after sometime. Like inner clock or license file.

Thanks

I would like to know if this is an option in Matlab Compiler because I have the same problem.

Mathworks does not provide any support for this.

You can either build your own technology, or you can make a call to a third-party file licensing system. There are many third party licensing systems, especially for PCs.

The particular licensing system that Mathworks itself uses is FlexNet from Flexera Software, which is fairly common, also used by the main competitors. It can be temperamental sometimes, and many a systems administrator has cursed its existence. On the other hand, it is fairly flexible in being able to handle multiple licensing models, and handle usage limits, and handle adding "features". I would look for something else before seriously considering it for low-value low-volume software.
