Decompiling Deuce bytecode

[Arie Zilberstein]

Hi,

 

In order to better understand the transformations that Deuce is performing, I'd like to decompile the .class files that it generates in offline mode. However this proves very difficult. I have tried 3 different decompilers (jad, jd, dava) and neither one can stomach Deuce's bytecode output J

 

Jad – crashes on the FieldsHolder classes, gives incorrect results for the augmented methods (those that accept Context).

Jd – doesn't crash, but all FieldsHolders are empty, and all augmented methods are silently missing from its output.

Dava – crashes while looking for field x__ADDRESS__.

 

Did anyone have any luck decompiling Deuce's output?

 

Thanks,

Arie

Hi,

I successfully used JD with previous versions of Deuce but did not try
with the latest one. Decompilers likely fail because Deuce generate
code that, although valid, is unlike anything a compiler would produce.

You can simply use javap -c, but it requires some familiarity with
Java bytecode.
