Not really - even so, it's not very difficult to decompile java class
files.  Do a search for "Java decompiler" on Google for an eye opener.
(granted, it'd be java code, not CF code, but it'd still be source code)

You might want to move all of your business logic to c++ cfx tags or to
COM objects (I've yet to see an ActiveX decompiler)

Remember, technology is not a business model.

Subject: protecting source code with MX

Hello all!

I have heard mention of a better way to protect source code with MX
(better
than the encode capabilities of previous CF versions).

Has anyone heard anything about this or have any experience with this?

I have an application which I sell to large corporations.  The software,
along with CFServer is installed on the customer premises, and I do not
wish
for the code to be decrypted and changed or copied.

Since MX is Java Based, are there any new ways to compile or encrypt our
code so it is safe?

Any other ideas would be great!



Thanks,
