----------------------------------- G-lant Fri Mar 12, 2004 3:15 pm Source codeanyone?? ----------------------------------- Does anyone know of/or have a program that can get the source code from other programs?? I need to to get the source from a bunch of turing and java programs that my teacher,friend, and classmates made. ----------------------------------- jonos Fri Mar 12, 2004 3:26 pm ----------------------------------- first of all, don't link to other posts from other useless posts. what you want is a decompiler and they are easy enough to get (at least for java). and because you told us what you are going to use it for, which is cheating and proclaiming yourself an idiot, i will not help you, and i hope that other people will not help you. if this is for cheating purposes, you shouldn't be taking a compsci class, because you are lazy and should figure these things out. s some mod should lock this, you should be ashamed opf your stupididty. ----------------------------------- Tony Fri Mar 12, 2004 3:36 pm ----------------------------------- well there's still some skill needed to decompile a program and then make it look good and as your own :think: Anyways, it is easy enough to come across a java decompiler, but the source code isn't preaty. You need to know what you're doing to get it to work. As for turing - there're no decompilers available. And even if someone ever makes it, it will decomiple into C++ source ----------------------------------- Dan Fri Mar 12, 2004 6:38 pm ----------------------------------- i dont think it is reasnobly posable to make or find a c++ or c decompiler becuse it is not like java where it is all standersied and a decompiler whould have to be wirten for each compiler there is and for each verson. Also all thous libs whould have to be wirten in. it may be posable to make a progame that generates a posable code given output but it whould be way off and only whould reporduce the output andnot the fuctaiontly. becuse turing is very much like or based on (depends on the verson) c++ the same porblems whould be persdent. alougth java decompilers work gr8 and there are some that give you a good repeastion of the code minus the coments. (gr8 fun for isp class where you get a compilered jar file to mess with [HA HA HA who says thous robots can't turn right now!!! ]) ----------------------------------- wtd Fri Mar 12, 2004 7:17 pm ----------------------------------- The best thing you can hope for in the case of a native binary is a disassembler which can tell you which instructions the computer is executing. ----------------------------------- rizzix Fri Mar 12, 2004 11:19 pm ----------------------------------- i must mention, it is possible to encrypt the java bytecode, thus rendering you program impossible to decompile.. now this if possible is very difficult in c/c++ (or any native application for that matter) :) ----------------------------------- Dan Sat Mar 13, 2004 7:42 pm ----------------------------------- well c/c++ dose not realy need it b/c it is hard enogth to decompile with out any ecription as it is.
