Customizable Encrypted SIM file

[RitwickGupta]

Hello,

I have created a SIM script which I have to deliver to my customers. Customers need to do some customization to that SIM script(updating values of some variables) for it to work for them. I also want to encrypt the SIM script fully or partially as I don't want to give the logic away. Is there any possible way to achieve that?

Is it possible to divide the file into two parts, one of which is not encrypted and customizable and other part is encrypted, but they somehow work together?

Cheers!

The only way to encrypt a SIM script is with a utility from Micros called islcrypt.exe. I don't have a copy anymore, and can't seem to find one anywhere.

There are two ways to split the variable configuration from the logic.
1) create an initialization file and use and Event Init to read it in and set global variables
2) create a second .isl file to hold your variable settings and use an include statement in your logic script. ie include(mysettings.isl) .

1. Can you shed some light on this initialization file? Can't seem to find anything on it in the tutorial.
