Decompilation also might not be software decompilation

We can also write about .NET, Java, AutoLISP decompilation. --Yonkie 13:13, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Also good link to insert: http://www.debugmode.com/dcompile/


Agreed about the link; next edit.

"Decompilation might not be software decompilation"... how? I can't think of any example. To me, compilation is a software only thing (though I suppose you can compile a list of groceries... can you decompile that list? Doesn't make sense to me).

.NET and Java decompilation are mentioned: "virtual machine (e.g. Java byte-codes)". Is there something special about autoLISP that indicates a special mention?

Concerning the merge: it seems like a good idea, but perhaps we should retain a redirect or a very short article for decompilation (similar to disassembly) where it defines the term as the output of a decompiler, or the process of generating that output (running the decompiler and possibly interacting with it).

Then just "See also decompiler" or "For the main article, see decompiler". I'm happy to do the merge in the next few days. --Mike Van Emmerik 3 July 2005 12:42 (UTC)
