Why would you want to do such a thing?

I mean, from whom do you want to hide your code and why?

if you want to protect your code ask your basis and apply the display authorization to the code.

in 2006 we discussed this once, we have to use some code in the beginning to hide the program source code. Before applying the code take backup ,so you search in SDN. I am not sure this is supported in later versions.

just check this also..

On most sites I've worked, the introduction of an unreadable include would have resulted in the termination of the perpetrators contract. I've also rejected third party tools that have "protected" code in this way.

If you really want to protect some super secret algorithm, implement in C, or suchlike, install only the binary on the required system, and call if via RFC.

If you're just wanting to prevent your colleagues from using your code as a template for their own, forget it.

I agree with Matthew, and anyway if the colleague is smart enough then he will break open your code.

Valid requirement: Maybe... but doubtfull.

Valid solution in ABAP: No.

Of course you can remove S_DEVELOP authority from the users and make sure that the program never dumps

why is he doing...?

i think he is generating/coding some Big tool ,so he don't want to show the source code to anyone.

or he want to simply test that functionality
