Change FernFlower in such a way that it doesn't generate the redundant constructor and accessors for record classes. Bonus Task: hide this functionality behind an option that can be passed through the CLI (check IFernflowerPreferences).
- ClassWriter.java - isSyntheticRecordMethod: added check for synthetic constructor/getter, which is done through 2 new methods using the name, description, and code of the method
- IFernflowerPreferences.java - added a new option to remove synthetic constructors/getters: REMOVE_RECORD_REDUNDANT
- record decompiled tests - modified the expected output of the record decompiled tests to remove the synthetic constructors/getters
- SingleClassesTest.java - added TestRecordComplexConstructorGetter (which checks that non-synthetic constructors/getters are not removed), and testRecordSimpleRedundant (which checks the use of the REMOVE_RECORD_REDUNDANT option)
Fernflower is the first actually working analytical decompiler for Java and probably for a high-level programming language in general. Naturally, it is still under development, please send your bug reports and improvement suggestions to the issue tracker.
Fernflower is licensed under the Apache Licence Version 2.0.
java -jar fernflower.jar [-<option>=<value>]* [<source>]+ <destination>
* means 0 or more times
+ means 1 or more times
<source>: file or directory with files to be decompiled. Directories are recursively scanned. Allowed file extensions are class, zip, and jar. Sources prefixed with -e= means "library" files that won't be decompiled, but taken into account when analyzing relationships between classes or methods. Especially renaming of identifiers (s. option 'ren') can benefit from information about external classes.
<destination>: destination directory
<option>, <value>: a command-line option with the corresponding value (see "Command-line options" below).
java -jar fernflower.jar -hes=0 -hdc=0 c:\Temp\binary\ -e=c:\Java\rt.jar c:\Temp\source\
java -jar fernflower.jar -dgs=1 c:\Temp\binary\library.jar c:\Temp\binary\Boot.class c:\Temp\source\
With the exception of mpm and urc the value of 1 means the option is activated, 0 - deactivated. Default value, if any, is given between parentheses.
Typically, the following options will be changed by user, if any: hes, hdc, dgs, mpm, ren, urc The rest of options can be left as they are: they are aimed at professional reverse engineers.
- rbr (1): hide bridge methods
- rsy (0): hide synthetic class members
- din (1): decompile inner classes
- dc4 (1): collapse 1.4 class references
- das (1): decompile assertions
- hes (1): hide empty super invocation
- hdc (1): hide empty default constructor
- dgs (0): decompile generic signatures
- ner (1): assume return not throwing exceptions
- den (1): decompile enumerations
- rgn (1): remove getClass() invocation, when it is part of a qualified new statement
- lit (0): output numeric literals "as-is"
- asc (0): encode non-ASCII characters in string and character literals as Unicode escapes
- bto (1): interpret int 1 as boolean true (workaround to a compiler bug)
- nns (0): allow for not set synthetic attribute (workaround to a compiler bug)
- uto (1): consider nameless types as java.lang.Object (workaround to a compiler architecture flaw)
- udv (1): reconstruct variable names from debug information, if present
- ump (1): reconstruct parameter names from corresponding attributes, if present
- rer (1): remove empty exception ranges
- fdi (1): de-inline finally structures
- mpm (0): maximum allowed processing time per decompiled method, in seconds. 0 means no upper limit
- ren (0): rename ambiguous (resp. obfuscated) classes and class elements
- urc (-): full name of a user-supplied class implementing IIdentifierRenamer interface. It is used to determine which class identifiers should be renamed and provides new identifier names (see "Renaming identifiers")
- inn (1): check for IntelliJ IDEA-specific @NotNull annotation and remove inserted code if found
- lac (0): decompile lambda expressions to anonymous classes
- nls (0): define new line character to be used for output. 0 - '\r\n' (Windows), 1 - '\n' (Unix), default is OS-dependent
- ind: indentation string (default is 3 spaces)
- crp (0): use record patterns where it is possible
- cps (0): use switch with patterns where it is possible
- log (INFO): a logging level, possible values are TRACE, INFO, WARN, ERROR
Some obfuscators give classes and their member elements short, meaningless and above all ambiguous names. Recompiling of such code leads to a great number of conflicts. Therefore it is advisable to let the decompiler rename elements in its turn, ensuring uniqueness of each identifier.
Option 'ren' (i.e. -ren=1) activates renaming functionality. Default renaming strategy goes as follows:
- rename an element if its name is a reserved word or is shorter than 3 characters
- new names are built according to a simple pattern: (class|method|field)_<consecutive unique number>
You can overwrite this rules by providing your own implementation of the 4 key methods invoked by the decompiler while renaming. Simply pass a class that implements org.jetbrains.java.decompiler.main.extern.IIdentifierRenamer in the option 'urc' (e.g. -urc=com.example.MyRenamer) to Fernflower. The class must be available on the application classpath.
The meaning of each method should be clear from naming: toBeRenamed determine whether the element will be renamed, while the other three provide new names for classes, methods and fields respectively.
