Isn't it better to ship uncompiled C++ code directly, instead of decompiling and recompiling already compiled code? Honest question, I'm a noob at compilers :)

- mdaniel 13y agoBytecode (whether x86, Java class files or this) is a far more compact and (arguably) more complete representation of the program's logic than the input source code. Also, you haven't experienced pain until you've tried to compile C or C++ on a machine other than the author's.
