Re: [Dev-C++] Split code in public/private parts - Help please

I thank you all for your advice/comments.

You are right about my intents, Haakon. I am marketing a kinda complex
"mathematical" algorithm for planning trips/tours. Since this algorithm has
to be interfaced by customers, once compiled, I want the source code of the
algorithm to be "hidden" (as far as the customers don't try to do
decompilation or reverse engineering). I definitely do not want customers to
see what the algorithm does but also not the names of "private"
functions/variables, except for the main function (called "algorithm()") and
its parameters, of course.

Any additional advice/reference on this topic ? Also, if you have
ideas/references about how I can make decompilation and reverse engineering
more difficult, I would be very pleased to know them.

Again and by advance, thank you.

Best regards,

            Jean-Marc
