emmtrix Studio implements obfuscation using #pragma directives or via the GUI. Obfuscation is a transformation that renames identifiers so that they become obscure. This feature is typically used to ensure that the code is unrecognizable. Functionality of the code and its original structure are preserved. The algorithms used are Secure Hash Algorithms SHA-1 and SHA-256. | emmtrix Studio implements obfuscation using #pragma directives or via the GUI.

The transformation is used make the source code hard to understand for humans while still preserving the original structure of the source code. It is meant for cases where the source code needs to be shared (e.g. for debugging) but no intellectual property should be shown.The transformation can be applied only to functions. | The transformation is used make the source code hard to understand for humans while still preserving the original structure of the source code.

Even though the transformation is selectable only for functions, it can affect other identifiers, as well, depending on the user settings. In its full scope, obfuscation affects all identifiers, including: | Even though the transformation is selectable only for functions, it can affect other identifiers, as well, depending on the user settings.
