Consider a string constant, @"string", in source code that also
appears in the compiled unix executable file. If someone knew the
value of the string they could easily open the executable with
TextEdit, find the string, replace it with a perfectly functioning one
of their own making, and then save the file and the application would
run with the new string value.
Is there some way to easily hide or munge a string constant so that it
does not appear in the compiled executable?
