Abstract

A computer-implemented method and system for binding digital rights managementexecutable code to a software application are disclosed. The method and system include identifying a host code block in the host code section (612), copying the host code block from the host code section to a stub code block in the stub code section (614), and re-routing at least one reference of the host code block to be a reference of the stub code block (616).
