For example, as a post-compilation step you could massage the .class data to make the byte code either harder to read when decompiled or harder to decompile into valid Java code (or both).

The TurboChai compiler takes Java bytecode as input, generates ANSI C source code and then uses any C compiler to generate optimized native code. Last summer, Microsoft announced C#, an object ...

JAVA is true when the output of compilation is Java bytecode, and NET is true when the output is Microsoft IL. Use of these compilation constants allows you to create platform-agnostic source code.
