Rb needs to compile "plugins" that are the compiled version of modules, classes, windows, etc, so that they are less likely to be "hacked".

Is there a feedback id that anyone knows for this?

Ok, Thx!

Then, there is basically no notion to protect your code
against non-registered use. Even passing an internal magic number
between internal method calls, is probably no solution.

BTW: I wouldn't say, that they hide the code as good as possible:
Symmetrically crypting the code using a user supplied secret
would be a bit more secure. Well, a developer could pass the
secret to someone else, but..

If you have the correct RB Release you can read it because of a bug.

- RB can read the source of encrypted modules


it can.

- The current release of RB discloses all available functions/sub
   including their signatures [even private methods]


They hide the source as good as possible.

- Developers 'theoretically' could read the source of encrypted modules,
   if they would be able to read the VM image of RB, while compiling
   an encrypted module


I bet they can.
