Secure Source Code and Software Validity

I hope if we can secure our source code while generating the PHP project than it will be very good to make our client away from our work.And the another feature to make our software with time limit.
For Example : I have to develop a software where the client have to pay annually.

That feauture would be great

i would like this also.

An option to obfuscate all the generated files would be a great thing. But it should be possible to include external files. For performance-reasons I have a lot of code outside of the project. If only the main files would be obfuscated, all extern resources wan’t work.

Hi Friends, there should be one more generation button called as “publishing project”. The main feature of this button is that, upon click this the entire projects scripts is encoded, so that no one can edit the generated file or manipulate the files.

I agree with digitalphotoworld’s opinion. This is hard to implement, because of performance reason. When the code in the script files are encrypted, it will take a few seconds to decrypted back, then web server will read and execute it properly.

There are systems that already do this such as from Zend. you are trying to re-invent the wheel
