PC C++ SDK Integration Overview

Product Introduction​

TapSDK PC is a C++ SDK specifically designed for PC games running through the TapTap launcher. It provides deep integration with the TapTap platform, including basic features such as user authorization and license verification (for premium games), as well as extended features such as cloud save.

Basic Features​

Launch Verification​

  • Game Ownership Verification: Verify whether the user owns the game

Login​

  • TapTap Login Authorization: Get user authorization
  • User Information Retrieval: Get basic user information such as OpenID

License Verification (Premium Games)​

  • DLC Ownership Verification: Check if the user owns specific DLC
  • DLC Store Display: Guide users to purchase DLC
  • Game and DLC Status Monitoring: Monitor changes in the playable status of games and DLC

Extended Features​

Cloud Save​

  • Save to TapTap Cloud: Players can read saves from any device to continue their game, avoiding player churn due to save loss.

System Requirements​

  • Operating System: Windows 7 or higher, 64-bit
  • Runtime Environment: Games must be launched through the TapTap launcher
  • Network Requirements: Internet connection required
  • SDK Type: Dynamic Link Library (DLL)

Integration Preparation​

1. Get Developer Resources​

Before starting integration, you need to:

  1. Register a developer account at TapTap Developer Center
  2. Create a game application and obtain the following information from "Your Games" → "Game Services" → "Application Configuration":
    • Client ID: Unique identifier for the application
    • Client Public Key: Public key string for SDK initialization

2. Download SDK​

Visit the TapSDK PC C++ Releases page to download the latest version of the SDK.

The SDK includes the following files:

  • taptap_api.h: Header file for basic features API (initialization, callback registration, user authorization, license verification, etc.)
  • taptap_cloudsave.h: Header file for cloud save feature API
  • taptap_api.dll: Dynamic library file (Windows)
  • taptap_api.lib: Import library file (Windows)

Basic Integration Steps​

Language Support​

The PC SDK is provided as a Dynamic Link Library (DLL) and supports integration with multiple programming languages:

  • C++
    • If you only need basic features such as user authorization and license verification, include the header file taptap_api.h. For specific integration steps, refer to Quick Start.
    • If you need to use cloud save features, include the header file taptap_cloudsave.h. For specific integration steps, refer to Cloud Save Quick Start.
  • Other Languages: Implement through each language's DLL calling mechanism.

Add SDK Files​

Add the downloaded SDK files to your project:

C++ Project:

#include "taptap_api.h" // Must include basic features header file
#include "taptap_cloudsave.h" // If cloud save features are needed

Other Languages:

  • Place taptap_api.dll in the same directory as the executable or in the system path
  • Load the DLL and declare function signatures according to language-specific features
