Hi,
I was wondering if somebody could help me with the following problem: I
would like to port some of my C++ programs to Java but I'm worried about the
fact that the Java programs can be easily "de-compiled"; revealing the methods
that I've worked long and hard to develop. Is there any easy way to stop
people from doing this?
As you can probably gather, I'm new to Java and need such questions answered
before pursuing the language further.
Thanks in advance

It's very hard to stop someone from decompiling your class files. That said, there are steps you can take to make sure that if someone does try to decompile your classes, it will be very hard for them to do it, or to understand what is in it. This process is called obfuscation. There are many programs out there that will do this for you, I can't think of any right now, but the basic idea is to make your files practically unreadable.
