Reverse engineering can be used for a several reasons, some of which are:. Reverse engineering is NOT cracking, although it is sometimes difficult to draw the fine line between those two. Computer programs are protected by copyright and trademark laws. Different countries have different exceptions to the copyright owner's rights.

The most common ones state that it is ok to decompile: for the purposes of interpretability where the interface specification has not been made available, for the purposes of error correction where the owner of the copyright is not available to make the correction, to determine parts of the program that are not protected by copyright. Note : if you are looking for Delphi cracks, key generators or just serial numbers: you are on the wrong site. For the moment, Borland does not offer any product capable of decompiling an executable.

When a Delphi project is compiled or run a compiled unit. By default the compiled version of each unit is stored in a separate binary-format file with the same name as the unit file, but with the extension. For example unit1. This means that if you have someones, for example, component compiled source all you have to do is to reverse it and get the code. The DCU file format is undocumented proprietary format and may change from version to version. If you would like to try to decompile a Delphi executable file, these are some of the things you should know:.

Dfm files contain the details properties of the objects contained in a form. When creating an exe , Delphi copies information in. Form files describe each component in your form, including the values of all persistent properties. In order to get the "dfm" from the executable file we need to understand what type of resources are stored inside a Win32 executable.

The most important from decompiling point of view are the CODE and. In the " Adding functionality to a Delphi program " article some interesting facts about Delphi executables format, class info and DFM resources are shown: how to reassign events to be handled by other event handlers defined in the same form.

Even more: how to add your own event handler, adding the code to the executable, that will change the caption of a button. The art of reverse engineering has traditionally been the land of technical wizards, familiar with assembly language and debuggers. Several Delphi decompilers have appeared that allow anybody, even with limited technical knowledge, to reverse engineer most Delphi executable files. If you are interested in reverse engineering Delphi programs I suggest you to take a look at the following few "decompilers":.

Final project goal is development of the program capable to restore the most part of initial Delphi source codes from the compiled file but IDR, as well as others Delphi decompilers, cannot do it yet. Nevertheless, IDR is in a status considerably to facilitate such process. Active 7 years, 7 months ago. Viewed 44k times.

Seeing this image you can get a idea that what I am trying to say: Then I tried to check what language this file's written in using CFF Explorer. Can't a. NET be decompiled? Johan Sounds like you're trying to decompile using the. So if it's native machine code, that's all you are going to get back. Is that going to be of use?

But for all intents and purposes, native code can't be decompiled with automated tools, and there are a lot of people who like it that way. It can't be decompiled back to the original source code, but tools like IDA do understand enough about native code to reconstruct a good portion of the code, then you can fill in the missing gaps manually.
