Any other idea to protect our code?
What you're trying to protect your code from...
Most people don't care what your code looks like or how it works, and
those who do, who are in a similar businesses to your own for you to
really care run the obvious risk of a copyright infringement lawsuit if
they steal it.
In my 20 years in the business, I've never actually seen any who
actually benefitted by pirating code from someone else. They either
have lots of trouble implementing and supporting a pirate solution to
the point where they should have done the work themselves or they've
cut their own necks by not being able to charge service hours. Not to
mention the trouble they have to go through to hide the fact that
they're working with stolen code.
Honestly, most people who de-compile code really just want to see how
things work, they have no interest in stealing.
IMHO, this is a non-issue provided to us by the lawyers.
Kinda like the terrorists hiding out in suitcases and shoe heels and
communists under every bed....
