RE: [PHP] protecting your source code?

Hi Edward, Check out the Zend Encoder: www.zend.com To run encoded/compiled programs, the server will need the (free) Zend Optimizer, available for download at the same location. Zend has a small-business program that if your yearly revenues are less than some magic number, you get a major discount on the Zend Suite which includes the encoder and the development environment. The Zend Development Environment is fantastic- includes a debugger and profiler, code completion, etc. After 10+ years as a vi-guy, I actually made the switch recently. :) James >-----Original Message----- >From: Edward Peloke [mailto:epeloke@echoman.com] >Sent: Monday, June 14, 2004 3:50 PM >To: Php-General >Subject: [PHP] protecting your source code? > > >I wrote a bunch of code that will be used for a local site.
