Does Hise compile down to C++?

[xander]

For the security of a plugin, does any written JS in HISE compile down to C++?

@xander What do you mean by security?

[Christoph Hart]

No, anything you write into a script can be readable when reverse-engineering the binary.

If you use the script unlocker you get the same level of security as a standard C++ copy protection though.

@d-healey was curious if the JS scripts were exposed, as my plugin's authentication script is written in JS.

@Christoph-Hart, that was exactly what I was wondering, thanks!

@xander said in Does Hise compile down to C++?:

lugin's authentication script is written in JS.

Generally if your DRM is on the user's system consider it compromised ;)

@d-healey haha, only half the plugin's authorization is written on the plugin, we are routing it through our website's API, so it'll be a lot safer already, was just wondering if I had to do anything else to ensure even more security.
