I worked on WebSphere back in the day. There were a lot of pre-compiled libraries provided by other IBM teams. I too made good use of decompilers (probably jad at the time) as it was often easier than trying to track down the source.
- AstroJetson 2y agoI also had a huge library of decompiled Websphere libraries. IBM was always sending patches and we would go "ok, what does this do?" "Fixes your problem?""How""Really well." So it got decompiled to see what it did. There were lots of "We think your patch is doing XYZZY, we see where our code should be doing that. We've updated our code and the problem went away." Fernflower was awesome. RIP Stiver, glioblastoma can be an ugly way to die.
