Re: Who obfuscates?Re: Who obfuscates?Posted Apr 11, 2005 7:03 UTC (Mon) by khim (subscriber, #9252)In reply to: Re: Who obfuscates? by Wummel Parent article: Protect Your Source Code: Obfuscation 101 (O'ReillyNet)
You don't work with obfuscated code. Obfuscation is normally an automated step before compiling, for example calling retroguard for Java progs. Obfuscating with retroguard actually speeds up the startup time since variable names are shorter and the resulting .class files are smaller. It also makes trace logs useless thus making support nightmare. And it does not make code that much harder to crack. So even automatic obfuscator is useless in 99% cases.
