Hi

I have been using your Licensing system for a while now and have found it to be a very comprehensive and well supported product. Recently I have been building a wpf control, which I intend to license with your product and would also like to protect with some degree of encryption / obfuscation. Having been impressed with your licensing product it seems likely to me that you will have placed the same degree of care into the encryption product.

Obviously I began my research by reading through this forum and came across this post: http://www.infralution.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2518

Does this essentially mean that when it comes to single control, or library of controls one cannot use your product?

If that is the case how do you suggest that one does protect the code within them?

Thanks

Dom

Yes that is correct. .NET Encryptor is designed to protect at a whole application level. It can also protect library assemblies that the application uses - but not if you want to distribute the library independent of the application. The best you can probably do is to use an obfuscator. This will make it more difficult for someone to reverse engineer your code. If you do use an obfuscator then you should be careful to ensure that you are still able to get an interpret stack traces when exceptions occur. Some obfuscator make this difficult and if you are distributing a control you will inevitably need this capability.
