Prevent variable changes

    My source code is going to be encrypted, so people will be unable to alter important data. HOWEVER, I intend to implement plugins/hooks similar to WordPress/vBulletin... This seems like an open door for someone to just change all my variables - such as various limitations based on their license.

    Is there ANY way I could at least help guard against this sort of violation of my software?

    If they're in functions set them to private, if in open can use constants

    you can use various encryption tools available.but i agree with srinet.why dont you keep them open source and let others share the best thing of you.
    at the end there will be nothing remained encrypted :)
