ASP compiled

Ed
I want to pay a monthly fee to a hosting company to host my ASP application.
I have some propriety designs in my ASP application which I'm reluctant to
expose the source code. Unfortunately, with ASP, it's all source code.

Is there a way to "compile" my ASP application so that when I upload the
application to the hosting company, my propriety work will remain
unrevealed?

Second question, if I update my ASP applcation to ASP.NET, would there be a
way to compile the ASP.NET code so that I will only need to publish the
"compiled" version to the hosting company server (thereby protecting my
source code from being revealed)?

Thanks.

Yes, you can put your important business logic in a DLL, though keep in mind
that there is likely to be a performance hit.

You will get better answers about how to protect ASP.NET code in an ASP.NET
forum.

An idea you could use that would make the source code much more
unreadable would be to use some kind of code optimizer on it that
removes comments and removes much white space such as tabs...

PCbit

Advanced HTML Optimizer
Can remove white space in HTML and ASP files.

This may be a dumb question, but are there any practical advantages of compiling a python application to *.pyo, or *.pyc? I haven't noticed any difference in the performance of text *.py or a bytecompiled file.

Hi, I have a question about Python. I know that it is an interpreted language, meaning a python program is converted to binary on the fly each time it is run, or compiled. What would be the purpose of compiling? I guess the compiled python code (question, is compiled python code called byte code?..if not, what is it called?) is not readable since it is not plain text, which may be a reason for compiling...but why else?? Thanks.

Hi all. I'm sorry for a noob question like this but I'll try to ask it anyway. One of the greatest problem that may discourage a new user to choose Python language is it's interpreted nature. Another important problem is that no interpreter is installed on Windows machine by default and this makes harder to distribute the software. Does it is planned that, in a far future, Python will implement a form of compilation? This would be...

I am a newbie ASP.NET programmer. While going through the MSDN ASP.NET tutorial, I came across the following sentence: All ASP.NET code is compiled rather than interpreted which allows early binding, strong typing & just-in-time (JIT) compiling to native code. What do "compiled rather than interpreted" & "early binding" mean? Also since ASP.NET code is compiled & not interpreted, what are the benefits of "compiled" code over "interpreted"...
