Re: Obfuscation - optimisation?
Hi,
(Weird, I cannot see my own posting in the newsgroup [on gmane], but
yours is there...)
A question came to mind:
When using classes one can use obfuscation/optimisation tools on
class-files (e.g. progaurd) in order to reduce footprint, etc. Are there
any similar possibilities with gcj?
I reckon I cannot use progaurd since gcj cannot compile to native from
class-files, right?!
gcj can compile from class files to native but its less effective.
Ofcourse it can - silly me. I use "gcj -c some.jar" all the time...
But how is it less effective?
But that is then the way to go - obfuscation on class-basis and then
straight ahead?!
