How do I protect and market my code?

Name: Anonymous 2010-05-12 12:44

Basically I had a over the summer assignment which I used to develop a piece of software which I guess will sell around 50 - 70 bucks a copy.

To make this clear. The final code is in Java (a requirement).

Now I was think about marketing my little creation however I'm faced with two problem:

1, I need to provide full documentation to the Lecturers. How do I go about preventing them from stealing my code/methodologies used? Would simple copyright be enough?

2. How do I bundle the software? How do I sell it? Should I partner with a publisher or should I just sell the code to a software company? I will need bi-yearly maintenance at least.
How do I protect said software from getting cracked?

How /prog/ has some experience on this already!
Thanks for helping out!

Why are we assuming he sells one copy?  Seems like if one person would buy it, someone else would too, eh?  But probably not even that.
