Hi,

The question is how JForex support code obfuscator ?
What should be done in order to obfuscate the code for both custom indicators and strategy ?
I use Eclipse.

Thank you,

Darlu72, I don't think you have to worry about obfuscating your code - your last strategy contest entry was so long with so much interfacing and contained so many extra indicator calculations that most people wouldn't even bother reading more than the first couple of hundred lines ;) . If you are trying to protect your code from clients who might redistribute it, obfuscation is not the answer (even though it can be done in Eclipse) - just release your .jfx file. I don't know of anyone yet who has managed to reverse a .jfx file to source.

Yes, you might have right. That's why I did not worry too much to release the code ;)
Every month I test different ideas and trading methods in contest. This month I failed.
But I want protect the idea, especially for the indicators since I claim for myself I have a lot of 'state of the art' ideas.
The jfx is just a java compiled file with another extension if I a not wrong. Obfuscating will introduce some more difficulties in understanding the code after decompile, hope so.

Thanks
