    Hi all. I want to know that how to hide source code of my program so that it can not be seen by some softwares like- reflector or others. Is it possible to write my own cryptographic algorithm to hide source code? If yes then suggest me what and how should I do. Thanks. Gagan

      So, you are looking for an obfuscator.

      Yes it is possible but it is not a trivial task. There are some open source projects like NCloak[^] where you can see the code. ;) And here[^] you can find an obfuscator list. Some of them are free others not. And remember if your code is so important that you feel the need to obfuscate it, then don't try to create your own obfuscator, just use the existing ones.
