Re: RPG Service Program vs Include Source for Shared

They would probably have to be able to reverse engineer your service programs if they wanted to hack it bad enough.

Just don’t advertise it as a licensing module.

But I understand your point.

Subprocedures and SQL Calls

The only time I recommend /INCLUDE is for license key/security functions in vendor software.  And that only so someone can't try to bypass them.
