ArcPad fails loading encoded applet

Hi!

I made an ArcPad-applet which I want to be protected. I read about a way in ArcPad-Studio-help to encode my applet while compiling it.
But when I copy this encoded applet now to the applet folder, ArcPad gives an error-message only containing the path of my "Applet1.apa".
So what can I do to run my script in encoded version?


if this is not possible... Would there be a way to use interprocess-communication to send all needed applet-script-information to ArcPad at runtime using a custom C++ program? I know that ArcPad Studio is able to send scripts like MessageBox("hello world"); to ArcPad, but could I also send declarations to ArcPad, what to do if e.g. an OnPosition-Event is firing??

In the meanwhile I got a solution for my problem!
The problem was that I used german special characters in comments of my applet (Javascript source code). These were encoded as well, but ArcPad seems not to be able to handle with them, although they are comments...
So i removed all special characters, compiled and encoded my applet and now ArcPad is able to use it!!

Also I found out that this seems to be a bug since ArcPad 7.0...
