I plan to release one small, low priced utility. Since this is more hobby than business, I planned to use Dotfuscator Community Edition that is shipped with VS2008. How good is it? I could also use definition of "good enough obfuscator" - what features are missing from Dotfuscator Community Edition to make it good enough. Edit: I ...
I'm working on a software project where the application will end up being run in an untrusted environment. I have a need to perform some ancillary cryptographic signing (meaning this is not the primary means of securing data), but do not wish to leave the key in plain view as such: private static final String privateKey = "00AABBCC.......
I have a simple UiBinder widget containing a TextArea: <!DOCTYPE ui:UiBinder SYSTEM "http://dl.google.com/gwt/DTD/xhtml.ent"> <ui:UiBinder xmlns:ui="urn:ui:com.google.gwt.uibinder" xmlns:g="urn:import:com.google.gwt.user.client.ui"> <g:TextArea visibleLines="3" /> </ui:UiBinder> I want to control the background color of th...
When obfuscating your source code, are there any differences between Java and .NET web applications? or is the resulting obfuscated .dlls/.jars pretty much the same? Can you apply better obfuscating techniques in java versus .net, or again its the same pretty much? (not looking to debate how obfuscation won't hide intellectual propert...
Hi, I use haXe to generate php code. (This means you write you code in the haXe language and get a bunch of php files after compiling.) Today a customer told me that he needs a new feature on a old project made with haXe. He also told me that he altered some small things on the code for his own needs. Now I first have port his changes t...

I am building a spring mvc web application. I plan on using hibernate. I don't have much experience with obfuscating etc. What are the potential downsides to obfuscating an application? I understand that there might be issues with debugging the app, and recovering lost source code is also an issue. Are there any known issues with the...
Under VS2008, I'm working on a solution containing various DLL project. Is it possible to obfuscate the whole code? ...
Hi, I am having problems obfuscating a desktop application with Progaurd. I think it is something to do with the fact I have used Matisse for some of my GUI's... The problems are things like menu strings not appearing (*.properties file issues?) or windows not loading. I have tried keeping the classes I built with Matisse without any l...
Is there a ruby obfuscator or "compiler"? ...
How to obfuscate code quickly. I have a very small Java App and I want to deliver the obfuscated code to my client. I have heard a lot about ProGuard to obfuscate code and have downloaded it but doesn't know how to obfuscate my "abc.jar" file. I checked out its website but it contains a lot of material to read. I don't need heavy obfusc...
I have coded a pretty nice class and I'd like to install it on the clients server without risking them taking the code and not paying me. If possible, a method where I have the "key" on my server, and encrypt the source code on the clients server with that key and some how code the method for retrieving the key from my server into it, s...
How can I turn off JavaScript shortening in A4J? I remember there was an option, possibly used during build, which made .js files not being processed by some shortner / obfuscator, thus remaining nicely formatted. But I can't remember what it was or find it on the web. Anyone knows? Thanks ...
I have had good experiences recently developing with ASP.NET MVC and am considering whether or not to use it for a project coming up at work. One important consideration though: they sell source code licenses separately as a rule, and it's the kind of application we can't realistically tie to our own hosting without cutting off a large c...
I'm looking for a good .net obfuscator (for Visual Studio Express Edition) but it has to be free. Any recommendations? ...
Hello I've created a WPF application and obfuscated the main .exe with an external tool. Now I'm having trouble to publish it as a clickonce application because Visual Studio somehow is recompiling again the main executable. I deactivated the build checkboxes under Solution-> Configuration manager but it didn't work: the executable ke...

This is most probably a stupid question, but I'd like to make sure I did not miss anything: Am I right to assume that using Elmah and code obfuscation at the same time does not make much sense since Elmah won't be able to produce any meaningful call stacks? Thanks, Adrian ...
If I have an integer like this in several places in my code... int my_secret = 42; ... is it possible to make it more difficult to find that integer in the compiled program? I've seen this done with strings, for example by shifting each letter by x characters and then un-shifting them at runtime, but I doubt this technique would work ...
I'm currently developing a website, into which I've included a filter that attempts to obfuscate any e-mail addresses present in the webpages it serves. As it is now, it converts the addresses into images. I've also seen a few other methods in use; some split the address into characters and use generated javascript to include it in the...
