Hi,
Does visual studio come with a compiler setting to obsfucate the assembly,
or are there 3rd party products that do this?

Hi John,
As far as I know, you will need third party tools. If you are using .net
2.0 it might be usefull to check the ObfuscateAssemblyAttribute.

Hi,
the free Dotfuscator Community Edition is included with VS 2005. ( same as
with VS 2003 ).
You can locate it under the Tools menue.
If you need an extra level of protection you can either upgrade to
Dofuscator Professional Edition or use any of the many 3rd party tools
available.
RemoteSoft ( www.remotesoft.com) has a great set of tools for protecting and
obfuscating.

It is also important to note that anyone who can read MSIL and open an
assembly for reading most likely has the expertise to decompile your
assembly, regardless of obfuscation. All it takes is the right software to
do it. IOW, you may want to consider whether or not you are simply wasting
your time.

Thanks, I've had a look at it, and there's a small problem. I need to run it
on the command-line, but it always pops up a window at the end of an
execute, even in /q (quiet) mode. Is this because it's the community
edition, does anyone know?
John.

Yeah, I know. This is just a tinkertoy level of security to stop the idly
curious, and to have a placeholder for something more effective. This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics
