As I work for Websphere Commerce Server(WCS), I need to decompile product classes as part of my day to day work. Every time, I move between projects, environments, I need to setup Jadclipse.
I thought of adding this info in my blog so that its ready for my reference.
- Close RAD
- Download "Jad 1.5.8g for Windows 9x-NT-2000 on Intel platform.zip" from http://www.javadecompilers.com/jad
- Download net.sf.jadclipse_3.3.0.jar from http://sourceforge.net/projects/jadclipse/
- Copy "net.sf.jadclipse_3.3.0.jar" into C:\IBM\SDP\plugins
- Unzip Jad 1.5.8g for Windows 9x-NT-2000 on Intel platform.zip and copy into c:\jadclipse
- Open RAD
- Window > Preferences > Java > JadClipse - > Set Path to Decompiler to C:\jadclipse\jad.exe.
- Restart Eclipse/RAD.
- Your de-compiler should be up and running.
As I presume that experienced developers read this, I didn't give much attention to explain steps in detail.
Time-to-time, the download links might break, you may have to google for the latest links.
These steps should work for Eclipse as well, but I haven't tried, while writing this blog.
