Unsupported .NET Constructs

You can protect and implement licensing for any kind of .Net assembly. However, methods with the following constructs cannot be transformed in Code Protector:

• Generic methods or methods on generic types (see Generics support in Software Potential) for more details of Generics support).
• Non-static methods of a structure.
• Methods with “out” or “ref” parameters.
• Methods that invoke other methods with “out” or “ref” parameters.
• Methods that modify a method parameter, even if the parameter is defined as a “by value”.
• Methods with too many local variables or parameters (> 254).
• Methods that contain calls to
  • Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly(),
  • Reflection.MethodInfo.GetCurrentMethod(), or
  • Reflection.Assembly.GetCallingAssembly().
• Implicit and explicit cast operators
• Unsafe code – For example, in C#, methods that contain the keyword unsafe typically cannot be transformed.
• Autoproperty Initializers (in C# 6) 
• Exception Filters (in C# 6)
