What you're trying to protect your code from...

Exactly. WO apps are server, not desktop apps, so users don't have access to any of your compiled Java code (assuming your app server is well-protected). An exception is the client portion of Java Client apps. But Java Client apps aren't really suitable for running over the Internet, so those onto whose desktops your Java Client client code is downloaded are usually those on your own intranet. Hopefully, you can trust these people :-)


I suppose another exception would be WO frameworks that are distributed to others. I haven't seen a flourishing market in this area, but maybe it will develop. In this situation, the "Model" code (in the Model-View-Controller paradigm) would have the most value and could be obfuscated as Chuck has outlined.

	But maybe I'm missing something...

Aloha,
Art
