>It is now a known fact that our FoxPro/VFP source code can be obtained by third party decompilation tools like REFOX. Please tell me how can I protect my software and source code so that my software doesnot get decompiled. Are there techniques or tools for this?
Don't include the source code in your exe. Create a copy of your source code for distribution. Compile all prgs but only add the fxps to your project. This assumes you don't explicitly call a .prg file in your source code. ie. CREATEOBJECT([myclass],[classes\mclasses.prg])
Remove all the source code from the vcxs.
If you do that, it will be harder for programs like refox to give usable source code.
