- SOURCE CODE SECURITY - for DrWimp users
-
-
- The library has become rather large over the last few versions and now
- exceeds 45k. This means that using it in the basic way as a library for a
- RunImage means that even the smallest and most simplest applications will be
- quite large. This is undesirable.
-
- Also your source code (the RunImage) will be open for everyone to see.
-
- The total size of your source code combined with DrWimp can be reduced
- spectacularly, and at the same time gain more security, by using the
- applications contained in the Utils folder.
-
- The procedure:
-
- 1. Link your RunImage with DrWimp using !Linker. Store your original
- RunImage somewhere safe.
-
- 2. The RunImage can then be compressed using !BSquasher to produce a new
- RunImage which is very hard to follow.
-
- 3. Turn the compressed BASIC RunImage into an absolute file by dropping it
- onto !MakeApp2 and saving under a different name.
-
- 4. Compress the Absolute file by dropping it onto !Crunch, to give you your
- final RunImage to distribute.
