#125027 - Other side of the coin Responding to: ???'s previous message |
There is another side to this. Anything you put into a product which is not protected in some way becomes public domain once the product goes on sale (or is even shown in public at an exhibition). Any technique used in it which is not protected can be used by anyone else. That means you can read the code and see how they did things. You cannot copy the code but you can use the same technique in your own design.
