Executables out of perl script? Ajith 04-20-2006

Hello,

I need to generate an executable out of my perl script. Please let me know
if there is any method by which the same can be implemented.

Preabmble for the requirement:
Some security cheks need to be done along with a lot of text manipulation
for which Perl was the ideal candidate.
But if the script is distributed, the safety checks can be easily removed by
the user by commenting the calling perl code.
Inorder to retain the safety checks, i must convert the perl script to some
non readable format (how about executable?) so that it can not be tampered.

Hope I will get the required information soon.

Regards,
Ajith

You can use PAR's 'pp' utility. The PAR module is available from CPAN.

Cheers,

Ajith, I have been using PerlApp from ActiveState - its part of the Perl
Development Kit that they have (http://www.activestate.com/pdk). It is a
commercial product and I have been very happy with it.
