Are there any good APIs for accepting Bitcoin within Qt or similar such applications, for making paid shareware applications?

(cf. the related Bitcoin StackExchange question)

Personally, What I would do it just have a link to "buy full software here" on your "demo" application.

You can use a callback API like blockcypher.com/blockchain.info (Personally I prefer the Blockcypher API) to check when someone has paid and give them a unique link to the full version or give them some user credentials which are checked against an authentication server (like mysql backend)

Hope this helps.

As funny as it may look, there are many networks that offer what you need just like any other form of payment system, you can integrate activate, get licence or buy full package here into your shareware and include your payment link, dwolla, coinbase, blockchain to mention but a few.
