Obfuscating Java Code
Semantic Designs can construct custom obfuscators for virtually any source language as a part of the corresponding Source Formatter. This page contains Java sample code, its obfuscated version, and the generated obfuscation map.
Java Sample Code before Obfuscation
(This is the same formatted code shown on the Java Formatter example page)
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class Program1
{
public static void main(String args[]) {
String first,second;
double choice;
double radius,width,area,length;
String value = " "; //intialize the string
value = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Please chose one of the options:"+"\n"+"a)Enter 1 to calculate the area of the Circle"+"\n"+"b)Enter 2 to calculate the area of the Triangle"+"\n"+"c)Enter 3 to calculate the area of the Square"+"\n"+"d)Enter 4 to calculate the area of the Rectangle"+"\n"+"e)Enter 5 to calculate the area of the Cube"+"\n"+"f)Enter 6 to exit the program");
choice = Double.parseDouble(value);
while (choice != 6) {
//if(choice!=1||choice!=2||choice!=3||choice!=4||choice!=5)
// JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Wrong option entered", " error",
// JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
if (choice == 1) { //calculate the area of circle
first = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the value of radius");
radius = Double.parseDouble(first);
area = Math.PI*radius*radius;

} //end of while loop
System.out.println("Program terminated\n");
System.exit(0);
} //end of main
}
Java Code after Obfuscation
Notice that comments are gone, names have been scrambled, text strings obscured. Larger constants (not shown here) have their radix twiddled. The obfuscator uses a special list provided by the user to define names that should be preserved, ensuring that public interfaces and accesses to public libraries remain valid. If you obfuscate a set of Java source files simultaneously, only the public symbols they collectively offer will be visible in the compiled source files.

Obfuscated Symbol Cross Reference
The obfuscator produces a cross reference mapping obfuscated symbols to the orginal symbols, so that obfuscated code in the field can still be decoded if necessary. In fact, by reversing this map, the obfuscator can unobfuscate the code (of course, it cannot restore the comments).
