Just thought I should point out that anything targeting Java or the .Net CLR has effectively the same problem as it compiles to bytecode that can be readily decompiled.

Search for ".net obfuscator" sometime.

If RB allowed you to compile true plugins or object libraries then you would have the business issue of having to support distributing multiple updated binaries as different versions of RB potentially changed the interface - ask some of the plugin developers about RS history in this regard.

The c++ community has a similar issue due to binary incompatibility between compilers on the same hardware, although the dominance of Visual Studio has lessened the effect.

If you wanted to do the maximum to protect code written in RB right now, the best I can think of is to encode
