Question about 0.5 and offline verification

[georgbachmann]

Hello,

I used the RMStoreAppReceiptVerificator's method verifyAppReceipt:to verify my receipt offline and then the RMAppReceipt's containsInAppPurchaseOfProductIdentifier: method to find out if a user has bought a specific product.
That worked very well!

Today I just updated to 0.5 and found out that some things have changed.... So I am wondering if I need to adopt my code?

In the Wiki (https://github.com/robotmedia/RMStore/wiki/Receipt-verification) it says that I need to add the 'Apple Inc. Root Certificate' to my project?!? Is this new since 0.5?
Do I really have to add it?

And is there anything else I need to be aware?

Thanks,
Georg

Hi @georgbachmann. Glad you found RMStore useful.

Is this new since 0.5?

No.

Do I really have to add it?

It will make your app less vulnerable. It's up to you. Without it RMStore will log a warning, I believe.

And is there anything else I need to be aware?

Everything should be outlined in the wiki or the code documentation.

Thanks for your super quick reply!!!

Nope... haven't seen a warning yet....
But i'll add the certificate!

What I meant with the "anything else I need to be aware" i just meant if there were changes that would require me to adopt my code? Couldn't find anything in the wiki :)
If not, you can close the topic!

Thanks a lot!

No. The changes in 0.5 are all about new functionality (content downloads). Check the Readme for more info.

Great, thank you!

Just one more stupid question.....

On App Start I check if the app has a valid in app purchase (PRO Version)
(my App is iOS7 only)

i do that like that:

RMStoreAppReceiptVerificator *verificator = [[RMStoreAppReceiptVerificator alloc] init];
BOOL isValidReceipt = [verificator verifyAppReceipt];
if (isValidReceipt)
{
    BOOL isProVersion = [[RMAppReceipt bundleReceipt] containsInAppPurchaseOfProductIdentifier:xxx];
    ...
}

I still have version 1.0 in the App Store... But now i'd like to make an update soon... This will still work, right? The App will still have the receipt in there and verification should still pass, right?

Sorry for bothering you... it's just that in app purchases are so bad to test (especially updating and stuff) and if something fails users would be pissed....

That code is not 100% right. Would you mind posting the question in StackOverflow with the RMStore tag? If possible, I would prefer questions to be there as they're better indexed by Google, and thus have more potential to help others.
