How to lock the scripts

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello everyone.

I am looking for a solution to protect the scripts while allowing the user to see the parameters list and change the variables names.

This would be useful for the client to translate the objects to other languages and add product details without asking the programmers.

Any ideas on this?

Thank you!

Create a dummy object that just calls to the real one. then you can password protect the rest and still allow what you are seeking
call it just in the master script of the caller file with "parameters all"...
If you add some parameter after that - the whole idea of hidden parameters in the original file will be dumped.
