DJ Java Decompiler ver. 3.7.7.81 for Windows 95/98/Me/NT/2000/XP/Windows Server 2003
THE PURPOSE:
DJ Java Decompiler is a decompiler for Java which reconstructs the original source code
from the compiled binary CLASS files (applets). DJ Java Decompiler is able to decompile the
most complex Java applets and binaries, producing accurate source code.
This latest release is able to compile, run, create JAR archives and run applets outside
of the context of a Web browser when JDK (SDK) is installed. "Native-to-ASCII Converter"
form available too. 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 and .EXE archives.

The program is for Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Millennium Edition, Windows NT,
Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

DJ Java Decompiler is Freeware.
NOTE:
Some older virus scanners (like Mcafee) can flag DJ.exe
or Archiver.exe as being virus-infected.
WHY IS A DJ JAVA DECOMPILER USEFUL:
1. DJ Java Decompiler is useful for recovery of lost or accidentally
destroyed source code.
2. 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.
3. Fixing and debugging .class files. Use DJ Java Decompiler when developers
are slow to respond to questions that need immediate answers.
4. DJ Java Decompiler is useful for exploring the sources of Java runtime
libraries.
5. Like the possibility to inline bytecode.
6. To check the results of your obfuscation;)
KNOWN PROBLEMS:
1. 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.
2. The problem with "Undo" still exists.
