Read-out protection

Hi,

I am using ST72F264. I want to protect my code against being read out. I have the binary file and I give it to the factory workers and tell them when programming the devices, to turn the read-out protection on.

But what if they dont do it?

Is there a way to somehow specify the option bytes in the binary (like Microchip PIC18-there you write the option bytes with #pragmas in source code) so that setting the read-out protection (or any other option bit) depends purely on the software writer's intentions and not on the person who is programming the device

Thank you
