Hi,

Question: Is there any way to encrypt my .class or else .java file.

After compiling my java program i will get .class file which i distribute to clients.I heard in market we have software which can extract Source code from .class file.So i want to encrypt either .class file or else first i need to encrypt java file then compile it for security reason.

Is there any tool,or any method supported by SUN to avoid extracting source code from .class file.

You're talking about code obfuscation. Do a search on the net for "java code obfuscators".
