    need to know which is a good decompiler/dissasembler

    Reply Quote

    i need some suggestions on a good .net decompiler. i have been using spices.net but its not working to good.

     

    now before anybody starts shitting themselves, the program i want to dissasemble IS NOT copyrighted.

     

    it is also a common business practice to decompile and view the competor's programs source.

     

    i also decompile programs to learn from them. so please dont *** a brick

     

    any suggestions would be appreciated

    Reflector.NET should be enough for the purpose of learning.
    We are boki. The rest is known.
    The not so known part of the rest: It is Björn or Bjoern, but never Bjorn.

    I don't understand you. Reflector is a very good multilanguage decompiler...

    Perhaps you should be more specific with your needs.  The only things Reflector won't do is output C#/VB/Chrome source files to disk and disassemble native Intel instructions in unmanaged code sections.  You can view the code of any .NET assembly, though.

    Do you need to batch convert an entire assembly back to C# source including (best-guess) project files?

    Reflector can't output source files to disk directly, but there are some Reflector add-in's that make it capable of doing that: FileDissasembler and FileGenerator.

    thanks, so your saying that this program will decompile any .net program?

     

    i have been having trouble decompiling this one program ..its a program that my my friend made as a project, it hides  your ip i wanna see the inner workings, i think it was made in c# i wanted to try it with xna

     

    reflector is actually doing pretty good, on other programs that is....idk maybe its the language

     

    how can you tell which language a program was written in?

    Yes, any .NET assembly indeed.

    What program? You didn't provide any reference to it.

    Open your target program with Reflector. If it isn't a .NET one, Reflector will say you that it "does not contain a CLI header".

    seriously? i thought it would be much more complcated to decompile a program since it would be write protected or somethin.

     

    so pretty much your sayin i could decompile/dissasemble expensive software such as 3ds max or photoshop (i wouldnt, just wondering)

     

    the program is a program that hides your ip, through proxys, my co worker made it in c# (i think) and i am curious to how it works

     

    also, is there any kind of universal decompiler that will decompile any language?

     

    thanks for all your help
