I had an idea. Not sure if it's a good one.
Flash is pretty good with optimizing all local var names to shorter ones
like _1 and _2 which does make decompiled code a bit tougher to read.
What if I took it just a step further and in one or two of my main
classes I added something like this:
/**
* Fake function to deter decompiling
* Function not actually used by class.
**/
public var handleComputations () {
// Maybe 10 or 20 lines of nonsensical but compileable
// code using the local vars so that variable
// names appear to be used inside this function but
// this function isn't actually ever called by the class.
// Maybe use uncommon routines with some bit shifts
// and complex mathmatical equations to make it look scary.
}
Overall it might make the swf 1KB or so bigger but might be worth it if
it added a frustrating day or two to a decompiler especially if they
don't figure out right away that the function is never called.
Any thoughts?

Question:
BTW, anyone knows if __bytecode__() is supported in Flash 8 (I'm still
using MX 2004 Pro)?
