Currently,
_obf_date_hash()is only declared asconstexprwhich makes it implicitlyinlineand therefore only one instance is created per-compilation. This causes significant issues with string obfuscation.When compiling in parallel, or when compiling single objects instead of the entire project, the
__DATE__and__TIME__expansions in the single instance of_obf_date_hash()may not match the one used to create the key for a newly-compiled obfuscated string, breaking the decryption.Example:
Depending on which file gets compiled first, only one those strings may decrypt correctly because it's using its own hash function, while the other fails.
Fix
Add
staticto the declaration ofconstexpr uint32_t _obf_date_hash()->static constexpr uint32_t _obf_date_hash()This way, each compilation unit will get its own, correct definition of the function with the same TIME and DATE used to create the encryption key.
