Re: [lpc2000] Code protection again....

2004-12-21 by onestone

Ultimately it is impossible to totally protect code. Perhaps the best 
you can prove is that somebody actually ripped you off. I routinely 
embed a copyright notice that is encrypted. The notice is functional, 
working code that cannot be removed easily. Does not appear as any kind 
of sensible ASCII, yet is revealed by a simple key. I also repeat the 
same messages in plain text. Which may help to reveal 'holes' in the 
memory map.
