LibHideIP is a library that on-the-fly (by preloading) prevents programs from knowing your IP address. This makes them unable to know and reveal your location, thus helping keep the user's privacy.
There is NO NEED to rebuild your software, because LibHideIP is a pre-loadable library, meaning you just need to RUN the software with LibHideIP loaded.
LibHideIP is also a development library.

See the project homepage https://libhideip.sourceforge.io and the project Wiki in the menu above.
