PowerLanguage source with Diamond Lock
Posted: Jan 11 2008
Diamond Lock works with TS EasyLanguage.
Will it protect PowerLanguage source code too?

it is compiled.Hi
Is the .SEF, (The Export/import Read-only files (*.sef) ), encrypted ?
How secure is it ?
Emmanuel
nope.TJ,
Did you try Diamond Lock ?
ELD is a different animal than sef.MC only compiles the codes into binary codes, but not encrypted/scrambled at all.
It is very dangerous to assume the compiled codes are safe. It costs just $1 per KB to decompile them.

If you want to safeguard your codes by filling in MBs of garbage codes, you are just a bit right because it will cost much,much cheaper for a 'high hand' from China to do the job.
So be very very careful to pass on your sef files...
This people don't speak at all about Multicharts's *sef files (read only version). They convert *esf files from eSignal or ELD files from TS, even the last version 8.8, so where is the dangerous in keeping your files protected with *sef files from Multicharts (the read only version)?It is very dangerous to assume the compiled codes are safe. It costs just $1 per KB to decompile them.

Before Dave gave us a complete and definetly response, I wrote to viziblesoft.com asking them this:I think that's best answered by TSsupport guys.
For those who think .sef file is safe, I can only wish you good luck.
Their response was quick and syntethic:from **********************************

object Decript Multicharts *.sef files
I've a question for you.
Do you decrypt *sef files with codes made with Powerlanguage from TSSupport Multicharts ?
They are encrypted codes made in a single way which can be installed with a "read Only way" and
not decompiled or password protected
They work only if created and installed with the same version of Multicharts.
Codes created with version 6.1 are read only from Multicharts 6.1 and not other versione and so
on.
They are different from *pla codes made with powerlanguage but only password protected.
These one seems to be encripted.
I think that there will be no doubt now.Hi,
No, we don't support Multicharts.
just a word of caution,Hi
Thank you Dave and CrazyNasdaq for your information
It look like that it is better to use .SEF, because you don't put your source on your PC, and the PLA contain the source....

Dear LMC,Hi Dave,
As you said, .sef file is in binary codes.
That is to say, MC uses some open standard to convert the Power Language codes into binary codes. During the process, NO encryption is done.
So if one can list out these binary codes then he/she should be able to convert them back to Power Language codes, by using the same open standard, provided he/she spend enough time/effort in it.
Is this understanding correct ?

That website seems to be http://www.investlabs.com/ and http://www.investlabs.com/diamondlock2000.html after a quick Google search.May I know the website of Diamond Lock?
