Hi Jeng,
Yes it does, it can be reverse engineered and you can try it yourself, its
still there but where something was "StoreNames" is now just "a".
If they determined enough they will reverse engineer it, but on a large
project its not easy to understand at all.
Put it this way, on large pro

If someone can get your .class file - someone can reverse engineer it.
Obfuscating will slow someone down, not prevent.
If people only have access via web browser, then only server side code
is being executed and people can never see your binaries on your server
so the only way to reverse engi
What is the risk?
Do you deploy it in your own Tomcat environment where only you have access or
do you distribute your class files?

Hi,
Obfuscation makes it harder to reverse engineer your code, nothing more.
If your code is of interest, there a people who can reverse engineer it.
If you want to make sure people can't read your code.
Use a wrapper to encrypt it and decrypt it through a value you can provide
through the context.

As long as ProGuard doesn't hack around with the servlet interface calls, you
should have no problem. However, I've never tried.

Will doing this really protect my servlet and make it
really difficult for someone to reverse engineer or
decompile it, as people seem to say?
Thank you.
