Hello,
I am very happy with code charge. It makes my work very clean and I became very efficient for a beginner.
How can I "encrypt" those asp files without creating a "dll" ? What tool could i use to do that, while preserving all the functionality ?
Thanks for inputs.
John

MickeySoft has a script encoder for ASP at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/default.asp?URL=/do...ompositedoc.xml
and see http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/libr...codersyntax.asp.
Keep in mind that this will protect your code against novices only.
In other words, it has been broken. See http://www.aspheute.com/english/20011123.asp

If you're serious about locking down your code, you should consider compiling it. http://www.xde.net/product_asp2dll.htm
The main benefit is security. You may gain some performance from compiling to a DLL. But as this article demonstrates http://www.15seconds.com/issue/001009.htm it's not always the case that compiling your applications improves performance. The cited article speaks specifically at converting your Data Access Layer (in Code Charge this would be the set of routines found in the common.asp file). I've had similar experiences where my benchmarks for compiled apps bring minimal performance gains (even when re-written from the ground up in com). So don't believe everything MickeySoft tells you.
