A Java class decompiler.  Generates Java source from class files.
Written in Ada 95.  Last I heard, the author was working on an
option to produce Ada source files from the class files.

Works for me now.  Probably a temporary net-glitch.

That was my original question.  All the links I can find point to the
same nonworking URI.

Java to Ada...

Karl Nyberg and I did a paper on this for Ada Europe a couple
of years ago.  There's one really significant problem with 
generating Ada package specs from  class files, and that is 
that the parameter names are missing.

Otherwise, most of what you'd want to know about a class can
be figured out from the class file, which is kind of neat.

By the way, the absence of named parameter notation is #2 on my
list of big mistakes in the Java language.  #1 is the lack of 
separation of spec and body.

Decaf

[Ed Falis]

Some time back, someone posted a location for Decaf, a byte code decompiler
written in Ada 95.  Can the author or someone else send me email, so I can
locate it/

Thanks,
