Simple code obfuscator

[spaze]

I was thinking about creating a simple code obuscator just to make the code look ugly. Why? Because I would like to offer my application to one company but don't want them to temper with the code. Or at least, want to make tempering a notch harder for them to do it.

 

So I was thinking about replacing all variable names with md5() so that:

 

$variable_name will become $c2c78403824b7735ea954cece62534cb

 

and

 

$this->view->variable_name will become $this->view->c2c78403824b7735ea954cece62534cb

 

But how should I go about this? Should I do regex on the whole file and replacing everything that comes after the $ character with md5 equivalent?

this is what? masking the variable name? its the same variable throughout the webpage(s) just way longer. i dont see the point.. at all. ur just masking the name with numbers... stupid

Would you want to start fiddling with a code that looks like that?

haha variables with md5? just a longer task. its the same as making your variable just a long string of numbers. i dont understand why md5 needs to me used here much less... would u want to fiddle with it? YOUR THE ONE MAKING IT! lol
