I need a method or a soft that can decompile an exe in its own source code (pascal, C, C++, etc.). I searched on the net (with google and yahoo) but there I can't find a decompiler or something like that.

Please tell me what I should do ...




or
if you find a decompiler please send the link or e-mail it to me.

If anyone thinks I am wrong, go ahead and correct me. But, I don’t think you can decompile an executable file, when it is compiled, it is like baking a cake, you can’t get the flower back out of the cake.
You could use a hex editor or a debugger or something to see what it does and when, but as for getting the source code back, I don’t think it is possible.

There is no way (that I know of) to directly decompile a source file in C/C++ to its source code. You can however, use a debugger, (softICE, IDAPro, gdb, etc) to dissassemble to to its assembly code. Which is just as good if you know Assembly.

so the only solution is a hex editor or a debugger ....... but i guess it won't help me so much:(

Its possible if the file is compiled Java.

Lol, actually, flour is a composite of many things which all chnage in making cake, IT IS IMMPOSSIBLE, salt from salt water is possible because salt-waters is the aques form of salt so itsa simple process.
