I never heard of Source Cod, but Atlantic Cod is hard to find on the market these days; people caught too many of them. Too bad; this is a really good fish... :-)

I would advise you to think about leaving the code as is. I'll explain why.

The companies offering reverse engineering solutions maintain that reverse engineering of any .NET Assembly is not a problem at all, even if they are protected with the most tricky protection products, especially those from well-known companies. And I believe it's true.

Due to that fact, pirating of you product won't be a problem no matter what you do, and regular users won't do it anyway. Why bothering and spending for protection? Well, think about it; it makes sense.

Eazfuscator.NET[^]
Confuser[^]

this can help you.

also you can refer "Dotfuscator"- a tutorial for this-Tutorial: Visual Studio 2008 Obfuscating with Dotfuscator[^]

but Don’t rely on obfuscation[^] as every thing can be re-engineered in C#
