How can we protect our projects? - Ecnarf - 10-19-2012
I have recently come across something that I find to be quite annoying. I was watching a youtube video and this guy had a software that he was able to use to decompile a project and view its code... How can we protect our applications from this?

step 1) Don't write comments
2) Depends on decompiler
Can i get link of video that you were watching.

manishshrestha60 Wrote:step 1) Don't write commentsI don't know how this protects code whatsoever. It is good programming practice to write comments, and you should never stray away from doing so.
If you are looking for decomipling protection, you want to use a .NET Obfuscator, which essentially changes your code to random symbols and such at compile-time so it cannot be decompiled as easily. However, there is no definite way to prevent a determined person from viewing your code.

Well we write comment to know what's going on or for in case are lost. and I asked for the link so i could know what decompiler is it. Even if the person uses the decompiler, it doesn't help you get the full code.
Note: there are alot of fake decopiler out there
