Pascal decoder?
« on: October 23, 2006, 02:53:00 AM »
Is such a thing available? I made a program and compiled it. I would like to get my source code back, or at least some of it.

Could anyone convert this little program back to code for me? 43KB

There are no decompilers available for Amiga.

This is one of the more glaring holes in the Amiga software range.

Makes me think.. For a time I ran a BBS on /X and then on a PC using PC Express. I wonder if I could decompile PCE and update it?

If you need to ask, no.

@Piru Could you decode a 43KB .exe file, or find the password for me? It was a program I made long time ago. It asks for a password, but I can't remember it. When correct password is entered, a menu comes up with some stuff, like jokes, system info and such.

Better would be to ask if he could write and release a decompiler. Rather than to ask him to decompile 43K of code by hand :-)

Got many friends Piru (real ones not imaginary ones) ??

No, didn't think so and can understand why. There was no need to be so rude.

Possibly. I have never decoded a pascal program before, but I doubt it makes any difference really. It won't give you the src though, but I could either figure out the password or bypass it.

Isn't Pascal compiled? If so, I assume you'd only be able to get as far as dissassembling it? Or is it converted to some sort of bytecode representation that's executed by an interpreter?

Pascal is compiled, so yes it's m68k asm disassembly. Shouldn't be too hard.

Aye, not for you but the guy who wanted his source back might balk at the sight of 40 pages of 68K mnemonics :-D

That's why I opted for the "or find the password for me" part.

Excuse me, but this is a MS-DOS program.

As this is amiga.org I thought the program would have been compiled to AmigaOS binary... I'm afraid I can't do much about the DOS app. Sorry.
