Integrate a decompiler #20

Open mojo2012 opened 7 years ago

mojo2012 commented 7 years ago

Im working with a closed source framework that is not very well documented (SAP hybris). I need on-demand decompilation of java classes while stepping through the code.

Do you think this is possible? Some of the java decompilers are written in java (like http://www.benf.org/other/cfr/), so they could be integrated in the debug host.

@mojo2012 Maybe something like these 👉 Java decompiler wrapper or JD-Core

mojo2012 commented 7 years ago

Yes this would be an option I guess. But the hard part is to write the actual on-the-fly-decmpiling-and-still-allowing-to-debug functionality?

faustinoaq commented 7 years ago

I think that a decompiler can overload the debuger. For now, I'm decompiling manually :smiley:

Maybe another extension?

mojo2012 commented 7 years ago

Well I wouldn't mind another extension, but it should work seamless ;)
