    With DJ Java Decompiler you can decompile java CLASS files and save it in text or other format. It's simple and easy.
Compatible with Windows 7    DJ Java Decompiler is Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003, Windows Vista, Windows 7 decompiler and disassembler for Java that reconstructs the original source code from the compiled binary CLASS files (for example Java applets). DJ Java Decompiler is able to decompile complex Java applets and binaries, producing accurate source code. DJ Java Decompiler is a stand-alone Windows application; it doesn't require having Java installed! DJ Java Decompiler is not just Java decompiler and disassembler but it is also a fully featured Java editor using the graphic user interface with syntax-coloring. Using DJ Java Decompiler is easy. Select Open and load your desired class file, or just double-click the CLASS file you want to decompile. DJ Java Decompiler supports drag-and-drop functions for OLE. You will see the source code instantly! In Windows Explorer Right mouse-button pop-up menu available too. You can decompile or disassembler a CLASS files on your computer hard disk or on a network drive that you have a connection to (you must have a full access rights or just change the default output directory for .jad files). You don't need to have the Java Virtual Machine or any other Java SDK installed. But this latest release is able to compile, run, create JAR archives and run applets outside of the context of a Web browser when JDK is installed. With DJ Java Decompiler you can decompile more than one java class file at one time. This release enables users to decompile "dead" parts of code.
    DJ Java Decompiler is suitable for studying JAVA bytecode. DJ Java Decompiler enables users to save, print, edit and compile the generated java code (see Why is a DJ Java Decompiler useful). Included Applet Tag Editor enables users to create applets quickly. Included "Archiver" tool is a simple archive file manager wich enables users to work with .JAR, .ZIP, .WAR, .EAR, .APK and .EXE archives (see New features in version 3.11.11.95 and New features in version 3.10.10.95). The "Hexadecimal View" - F11 shows the file in hexadecimal. This view lets you examine the file at the lowest possible level.
    DJ Java Decompiler is a graphical decompiler and disassembler for Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista/7 that uses Jad as its decompiling engine.
    DJ Java Decompiler is written and supported by Atanas Neshkov. If you have any questions, bug reports or comments regarding DJ Java Decompiler, please send e-mail to at_neshkov@yahoo.com

    How to use DJ Java Decompiler: ver. 3.11.11.95 Free download    

"There are only 10 types of people in the world:     
Those who understand binary and those who don't."     

    DJ Java Decompiler is intuitive enough that you can probably skip the instructions. Once you have downloaded and installed the DJ Java Decompiler, use the "File" - "Open" dialog to open your CLASS or JAR file.
    You can do one of the following (the choice is yours):
  • Select "File" -> "Open" and load your desired class file. Select "File" -> "Open in New Window" if you want to open the class file in new program instance.
  • Double-click the CLASS file you want to decompile.
  • Drag-and-drop your desired class file into the DJ Java Decompiler window. DJ Java Decompiler supports drag-and-drop functions for OLE.
  • In Windows Explorer right mouse-button pop-up menu is available too. - "Open with DJ"
  • To decompile a .JAR file: Select "File" -> "Open" and load your desired jar file. This jar file will be loaded in the "Archiver" tool. Use "Archiver" tool to decompile a single class file inside the selected archive or all class tree. To decompile a single class file inside the JAR archive - just double-click the class file.
  • To decompile the whole class tree: Select "Tools" -> "Decompile more files...". Click "Whole class tree" radio-button. Select the directory with classes and the destination directory. Click on "Decompile" button.
    You will see the source code instantly!


    Important Note: When the user copy & paste a .class file (for example MyClassFile.class) from "Temporary Internet Files" folder to a standard file folder Windows may suffix (rename) this file. Windows concatenates the original file name and "[number]" string as following: MyClassFile.class --> MyClassFile[1].class. In some cases DJ Java Decompiler will be unable to decompile the suffixed file MyClassFile[1].class, causing an error: "File access error, or file not exists. Check all and try again! Possible reasons: the file MyClassFile[1].class is corrupted". To solve the problem user needs to restore the original file name: MyClassFile[1].class --> MyClassFile.class. Also JAD expects that supplied Java class files are valid ones, i.e. they can pass the The JavaTM Virtual Machine Specification (JVM) successfully.


    This latest release is able to compile, run, create JAR archives and run applets outside of the context of a Web browser when JDK is installed.    Click on a picture to see more!
    With DJ Java Decompiler you can decompile more than one Java compiled class file at one time. Using DJ Java Decompiler, you can reconstruct the source code of an applet or binary .class file, and review its methods, fields, interfaces, attributes, exceptions etc. that would normally be unavailable to anyone other than the original programmer.
        

    October 14th, 2009:  DJ Java Decompiler has successfully passed Microsoft-designed installation, performance, reliability, and security tests for compatibility and reliability with Windows® 7 and received "Compatible with Windows 7" logo.

    Why is a DJ Java Decompiler useful?
  • DJ Java Decompiler is useful for recovery of lost or accidentally destroyed source code.
  • Decompiling Java is an excellent way of learning both Java and how the Java VM works. DJ Java Decompiler makes it easy to peek into Java classes and learn from the source. Its easy to use and intuitive graphic user interface eases the learning curve for new starters in Java.
  • Fixing and debugging .class files. Use DJ Java Decompiler when developers are slow to respond to questions that need immediate answers.
  • DJ Java Decompiler is useful for exploring the sources of Java runtime libraries.
  • Like the possibility to inline bytecode.
  • To check the results of your obfuscation;) It's really useful to ensure that your code is adequately obfuscated before releasing it into the public domain.
    All in all, DJ Java Decompiler can be a very handy development tool in your arsenal. It is a must have so as to understand the contents of java binary file. With DJ Java Decompiler a .class file is an open book as .java file.

Known bugs:
When user opens and decompiles a class file, DJ Java Decompiler creates a temporary file with .jad extension. By default the output folder is the folder of the class file. . The most common problem with DJ Java Decompiler is when the user doesn't have write privileges on this output folder (for example from CD or DVD drives; or from Program Files folder on Windows Vista). To solve this user can select another output location for .jad files from "Settings" - "Configuration" - "General" tab - un-check "Use Default Output Directory for .JAD files" - "Select Output Directory for .JAD files". User needs to change the output location of .jad files when working on slow media (floppy disks, tapes, external devices) or on network drives.

Doing development in both eclipse and having an instance of DJ Java Decompiler can lock the Windows clipboard, preventing DJ from accessing the clipboard data. This then pops up an exception dialog ("Cannot open clipboard."). This same strange behavior noticed when executing a CTRL+C action or CTRL+X. It seems however to be a bug in combination with eclipse. But this bug doesn't occur under Windows 95 and 98. It's look like in eclipse the standard java clipboard solution is not used. I can't find however what might cause the problem.

Dann 's bug report:   "...I have been running DJ on Windows XP Professional. If DJ has been open a while, ErrorMessages ("Cannot open clipboard.") start to be generated over and over again, with several minutes interval... I'm working in Eclipse, amongst other things... I do CUT and PASTE a lot while DJ is open in the background..."
- I don't have any idea about Eclipse and why this occurs! And I don't know which application locks the Windows clipboard, preventing DJ from accessing the clipboard data. If you have any assumption or hypothesis please mail to: at_neshkov@yahoo.com !

The problem with "Undo" still exists.

Debashish Chakrabarty (Indore, India) found the following problem: The DJ editor is based on RichEdit 1.0 (riched32.dll).
If you have Visual Studio or VB installed on your computer, you may need to place the original riched32.dll in your DJ application
folder - C:\Program Files\decomp\ because Visual Studio or VB can shuffle the riched32.dll s.
