Damn thread splicing. I didn't realize at the time that this thread was
30+ posts long, not 6. Gotta remember to look at the Re: in the
subject... :P

Yeah, but SWFObfuscator isn't as cool a product name, so I guess they went
with being confusing...

Ah. I thought he was talking about SWCEncrypt, which is actually an
obfuscator. I stand corrected.

Just to clarify, Andrew is in fact talking about encryption, not
obfuscation. The NitroLM product (which I have not used) actually does raw
byte encryption on your swf, which then gets loaded by a wrapper swf and
decrypted at runtime based on a secret key that gets sent over a secure
connection aft

What you both just described is obfuscation, not encryption. And there
are varying levels of obfuscation. The barest level is replacing all
props with _loc_1, whcih is child's play. I think what Andrew is
referring to is "strong" obfuscation, that will replace vars with a
meaningless string of
I'll Chime in on this since.. I could call myself a professional component
developer.
I had the same worries about source and intellectual property (2 years ago).
What I have found in the real component market,
developers will buy your component without code IF you have a site and
support backing
I still can't see what you hope to achieve with these solutions? Anybody
willing to copy and paste your code, is just as willing to copy your
encrypted .SWC file.
Source code is like love - it only has value if you give it out.

The local variable get changed to _loc_1, so your best best is to write some
sort of script that changes the public/private variables to something like
__var_1, and make sure u increment by 1. you can do the same for functions
function __test__1();. I dont think encryption will matter unless some
That last comment isn't true. The Sothink decompiler works just fine on Flex
swfs.
Here's my experience with SWF Encrypt and SWC Encrypt:
- We ran SWCEncrypt on a Flex SWC and then tried decompiling a Flex app
created with the encrypted SWC versus the unencrypted SWC. I could not tell

I'm not suggesting you don't try, or that charging for software is wrong or
anything like that, just that I feel source adds tremendous value to a
component, which changes the price point at which it becomes a good idea to
purchase it. I don't know what you plan on charging, or what your component
