2.7. Dotfuscator Changes
Dotfuscator is a post-build .NET hardening and instrumentation platform for protecting, measuring, and managing .NET applications. Traditionally, a reduced-functionality version of Dotfuscator has been bundled with Visual Studio, and VS2010 is no exception. However, the new version of Dotfuscator Software Services CE contains runtime intelligence functionality and some great added features, including the following:
Session and feature usage tracking, which allows you to track what the user was actually doing within your application
The ability to send tamper and tracking usage to an endpoint of your choice for later analysis
To access Dotfuscator functionality within Visual Studio on the main menu, go to Tools and select Dotfuscator Software Services.
