Hi!

Well, in the source code of one application I see following line as a first line of the PRG file (that is even before any comments):

_refox_ = (9876543210)

I guess thus string tells the ReFox that this module should not be decompiled at all cost. Is that what you require?

Anyway, there could be other tools for decompiling. If the technology you going to hide costs more than expences on the decompiling, your program probably will be decompiled. When it costs less, you do not require to worry about.

HTH.

>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?

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs

It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
