Does anyone have a sample of how to retrieve the serial number to use to verify against a license code?

The doc page is blank and the header file I found seems to require that I already have the serial number to call it. Looks confusing.

Anyone have a sample to retrieve the serial number (or part of it)?

Thanks,
David

1. Of course the example needs you to have the serialnumber already. You then need to generate a serialnumber for your plugin and send it back to the customer. The customer will then type this into a dialog of your plugin...
2. GeGetSerialInfo().nr will return a string with the first 11 digits of the currently running cinema 4d version

Howdy,

How do I use GeGetSerialInfo().nr?
I tried this....

String sn = GeGetSerialInfo().nr;

...but I get an error.

Adios,

    SerialInfo si;   
    GeGetSerialInfo(SERIAL_CINEMA4D,&si);   
    String sn = si.nr;

This should do it.

Howdy,

Thanks Samir, that worked.
I reckon I tried everything except using the & symbol.

Adios,
