RussianQuestion
I need an application for obfuscation (or other intelectual rights protection) of Assemblys (DLLs) compatible with the new Framework 4.
It should be free, and not require extensive changes in my application code.
Any recomendations?
PS: I know a bunch of others for framework3.5 and before, cant find one for Framework 4.
Solution
If you are looking for a free obfuscator that works with .NET 4.0 you can use the latest version of Dotfuscator Community Edition that is available in the Beta release of Visual Studio 2010 . The Community Edition only provides renaming but it is free. Dotfuscator CE is installed as part of the default installation of Visual Studio 2010 and a shortcut is available on the VS2010 Tools menu.
If you want stronger obfuscation, the commercial edition of Dotfuscator has supported .NET 4 assemblies since the first public release of Visual Studio 2010 / .NET 4.0 (the October 2008 CTP version).
OTHER TIPS
PS: I know a bunch of others for framework3.5 and before, cant find one for Framework 4.
The fact that .NET 4.0 has not been released yet might have something to do with that.
