Newbie - questions about .xcb files

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I like the concept of RAD GUI design using the Designer Studio but have the following concerns  :

a). Is there a performance hit involved in reading the layout from disk (as opposed to embedded in an executable)?
b). Is there a way of "locking" the generated .xcb file so that an end user who uses my application (but has also purchased a copy of CodeJock developer software) MAY NOT be able to reverse engineer (i.e. read and possibly modify) my .xcb file?
c). Is there a way of gracefully handling scenarios where the .xcb file is corrupted? 
Thanks
