If a certain function is really meant to be private, you can hide it by
making it a C function instead of a class method. Means that you'll
need to go through a few more hoops, but for one or two functions
that's not bad.

Hi again,
To prevent my program from being too easily hacked, I'd like that
class and
method names be not visible in the Mach-O binary.
I did a quick test by building a Foundation tool. I turned off
debugging
symbols in the project options, and select the "deployment" target
variation.
Using "sample" in the terminal still shows the readable names of my
class...
Is it possible to really hide these names? Say I have a class that
handle
serial number verifications, it's going to be really easy to bypass if
its
name is clearly visible.
Any idea?
