I've been asked to protect a Magento module through obfuscation. I never used PHP obfuscation packages but I know how they work and I forsee some issues in obfuscating a module that is very string and xml dependant:

  • /etc/config.xml registers harcoded class names and paths
  • auto-loading is heavily used
  • I cannot imagine how to automatically obfuscate a class name that will be called later by Mage::getModel('my/module').

Any recommendations?
