This is an exercise in futility. Unless you have some contractual or legal obligation to uphold (e.g. credit card numbers, personal health information, matters of national security...) then you are really better off not wasting your time. If you *really* want to, I'd just use PT_DENY_ATTACH and the similar DTrace-disabling flag. This is what Apple does to prevent people from attaching to iTunes (and, similarly, what DigiDesign does to prevent people from attaching to Pro Tools, so it's not a private thing). Combine that with your XOR obfuscation to prevent people from just dumping raw memory and you should be fine. I still think it's a waste of time, though. --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
