6 years ago What I often see is that some obfuscation process just replaces all names with random names. This means that this obfuscation is done only once and will remain like this until a new version with obfuscation is build.
In my mind, the only thing that would be required for this is a simple dictionary that can map a symbol to a another custom entered symbol. After indexing a project, (a plugin for example) could replace all original symbols with the corresponding custom entered symbol.
Removing the custom symbols is then also easy and you can do the same replacement but now the other way around. All symbols that have no custom replacement can be left as is.
I hope this makes a little bit more sense.
