Secure deployment of java war applications

This may be a conceptual question, so forgive if it's in the wrong place. My idea is that I don't want anyone to reverse engineer my .war file, or the inside .jar files at any rate. So, I can encrypt them and secure them with a password. Then, in order to deploy them, a client would have to pick a hosting service and upload the war file to them, such as I do for heroku.com. Once the encrypted war file is there, then the hosting service could allow me to set the password and thus install the war. In this manner, nobody but the hosting service ever has access to the un-encrypted files.

Has anyone heard of anything like this, or something that accomplishes the same purpose?

If your concern is reverse engineering, have you considered using a code obfuscator such as pro guard? It's quite effective
