Does anyone of you know how to protect this,

With a gun? Or in case that is illegal in your country: a bat?

Please be more specific in your question: Does anyone of you know how to protect this? Do you want to add a copy protection to your program?

I don't know what is a copy protection. Users may change specific file contents but only these...I need to aware anybody that I am the legitimate owner of the code and must treat it like these.I don't want to see,say any publication, which appears my code and another author

Just take a patent on it :P

Patents are useless, just copyright it.

If you only want to give them away some certain code, then just compile the other code to a library and give them the library, in this way they can't change everything, but only the things which aren't in the library :)
