Obfuscated code

How does dynaTrace behave when the code has been obfuscated? Looks like I will be attempting to use dynaTrace against an application which I believe is obfuscated, so I thought I'd throw the question out there to get an idea what I may expect. I am assuming that the method names will be garbled and the
"view source" option will show garbled code. Will we recognize the JDBC calls? Will the SQL statements be garbled?

Thanks

Dan is correct:

you will see garbage methods/classes for the obfuscated application code.

all Knowledge Sensor Packs (JDBC, Servlets, ....) will work fine, unless they did also obfuscate the Java Class library (and maybe additional JARs), which i really really hardly doubt!! :-)

best,

Christian

Yes, method names and class names will be garbled for your obfuscated code however this should not affect the JDBC calls and you should see the SQL Statements in clear text.
