C++ security

Question

if i write a c++ code which inside the code has important data such as where is Database.
After compile , can anyone see it and access the source code?

Answer 1

When compiling it becomes machine code. To do what you say you must decompile it. I wish you luck in getting the answer

Answer 2

Getting the original source code from the object file after compilation is impossible. By using stuff like a disassembler and decompiler, you will only get code showing similar behaviour but there is no way to prove if it would be the original one or not till the time you don't have the original source file.
