Hi, I just tested this software and it worked for me while other obfuscators  failed miserably.

One thing I notice is that it would be a great adition ( and probably a simple one to add )  to give the user the option to ignore certain  packages/directories.

Many projects use third party packages, for instance  caurina.Tween for animation and in my case I use a third part pathfinding AStar algorithm    implementation.

Usually the developer has little control over this packages using dynamic reference and it would be a pain to search and replace to fix problems with this, since it's some times a huge code base.

Since these third part packages are usually open-source anyway,  there's no real benefit in obfuscating them.

By being able to turn off obfuscation on these packages a lot of problems could be avoided.

Thank you and congratz for this great software.

Thanks for the suggestion, that's a good idea. Added on the features-to-be-implemented list :)

I agree with the previous poster. Ignoring packages/folder would be awesome!

Yes,  having to add each file (trivial) and each public method or variable to the exclude list is both time consuming and error prone.

Can you please give a roadmap of when this and other features are to be implemented, as this effects our purchasing decision.

It's going to be in the next version, but I cannot say when this will be out. I hope this will be end of December.

I got the --ignorepkg:dir to work, but I am unsure of the syntax to make a package more than one level deep from the root

I tried:
--ignorepkg:dir.dir2
--ignorepkg:dir\dir2
--ignorepkg:dir/dir2

What is the correct syntax for nested packages?

Thanks, Jake

Hi,
basically it should work using --ignorepkg:dir\dir2, but it looks like there is a bug and it doesn't correctly do what it should. Sorry for this, but this bug will be fixed in the next version which should be out relatively soon.

--ignorepkg does not work for some reason for me.
Is it still a working feature? I would like to know the correct syntax.

The --ignorepgk option should work like this: For example if you have a
project in C:\projects\foobar, and there is a package 'baz' which is
directly in the root, you can tell irrfuscator to ignore that package using

--ignorepkg:baz

If you want to ignore a package below another package, it works like this:
Let's say there is a package 'sub' below 'baz', and you only want to ignore
the 'sub' package. Then use it in this way:

--ignorepkg:baz\sub

Also, try if upper/lowercase is a problem in your case.
