Latest version: 1.1.2 pre1
Added 2005-04-05
Package containing a decompiler and an optimizer for Java.
The decompiler reads in class files and produces something similar to the original Java file. Of course this can't be perfect: There is no way to produce the comments or the names of local variables (except when compiled with debugging info) and there are often more ways to write the same thing.
The optimizer (obfuscator) transforms class files in various ways, which can be controlled by a script file. It supports the following operations:
- Renaming class, method, field and local names to shorter, obfuscated, or unique names or according to a given translation table
- Removing debugging information
- Removing dead code (classes, fields, methods) and constant fields
- Optimizing local variable allocation
JODE can be used as a library, through the AWT or Swing interfaces, or from the command line.
