EVALUATION Yes. We've already run into this problem with the security-related class files and the dash-O obfuscator we use to process them. ###@###.### 2004-02-13 Same with "-target 1.2", just adding since only 1.4 was specifically mentioned here. In particular, under JSSE, the "Signature" type was being output, and Dasho was corrupting the value/attribute table. See: 4918908 Improper Signature attribute in -source 1.4 ###@###.### 2004-02-16
