I use the beyondcompare software to compare the class code, but when the software opens the class file, it prompts a conversion error!
More strange is that my local compiled class can be converted, compiled on the server, the downloaded class can not be converted
I tried to compare 2 identical classes, one is server, one is local, and jd-gui is converted to java file comparison without any difference.
I downloaded it on the official website (https://www.scootersoftware.com/download.php?zz=kb_moreformatsv4), which is your conversion tool, Java class to source
The problem is as shown below, the class on the right shows a conversion error.

The following figure is to decompile the two classes into java code, without any inconsistency.
(source: sinaimg.cn)
It looks like the file format has a problem with Unicode/Chinese characters in the file name/path.
To fix the problem in Beyond Compare 4:
Open Tools > File Formats.
Select the Java Class to Source file format.
Go to the Conversion tab.
Change the dropdown External program (Unicode filenames) to External program (ANSI filenames), then Save.

Some valid IDL files, build as IDL Projects and install but some or all of their contents do not appear in the SCA Explorer/Target SDR/IDL Repository. I believe that the IDL parser used to build the tree in the IDL Repository is different from that used by the omniORB idl2cpp (omniidl) during building and it rejects some valid IDL. The cases I have found all use a value of a const previously defined. e.g.,
const Algorithm ALG_NONE = 0
const Algorithm ALG_LPC = ALG_NONE + 3
The second line can occur in the same file or in a file that includes the file containing the first line.
The file containing the first line is accepted if the second line is not in the same file, but the file containing the second line is rejected and none of its contents appear in the IDL Repository tree. It appears that it rejects a const appearing as a value on the right side of an assignment statement. These files however are valid and are accepted as valid by omniidl. But they cannot be used in RedHawk because they cannot be selected for a component interface.
I am not very familiar with RedHawk IDE sources or Eclipse plugins and so have not been able to find where the syntax for the parser is specified. I see "eclipsecorba" appearing in plugin lists so I assume that RedHawk is using the Eclipse CORBA Plugin (aka ECP) and that its parser is the one being used to build the tree. So I suspect that the parser error is in that package rather than in code added by RedHawk.
Can anyone confirm this and suggest where I might look in the ECP code for this? Should I report this as a ECP bug to the ECP group on SourceForge? I am not sure how active it is since it appears that the latest version is from 2008.
This seems to be a bug in the IDL editor, the IDL you have is legal. Would recommend you to report this to ECP but given the long inactivity of that project probably it will not fixed soon. I do know that one of our Remedy IT engineers has created a more modern IDL editor for Eclipse but due to lack of funding this work is not available publicly.
I have to port an old VB6 program to VB.NET and stumbled across an old ".res" (Resource) file, which is stored in binary format. Using VS 2013, I can embed that file into my .NET project, and VS shows me that it contains simply a string table.
The problem is, I cannnot figure out how to bring those res file into a more modern text format, or how to load the strings directly from the res file. I linked file to my application es an embedded resource, but all my atttempts to use VB6.LoadResString from the "Visual Basic Compatibility library" lead to an exception, showing the key was not found.
Furthermore, it seems VS does not allow me to copy/paste the string table into a text file, at least, not at a whole. Actually, it allows me to copy/paste one string after another, but as you can imagine, that is extremely cumbersome and error-prone. That is why I am looking for a better solution. Any ideas?
There is a functional VB6 Class for doing this at:
ResDecomp Class Decompiles RES Files
Sample programs are included, one of them a sort of "viewer" and the other just extracts RT_STRING resource strings to an XML document. You could easily change the latter to dump the string values to a text file, database, etc. instead.
Embed the .res file to a simple VB6 program which loops from min to the max ID and write out the strings to a text file using LoadResString (error trap for missing IDs).
Issue
I'm having some really odd compile issues using Visual Studio 2013 and it's really disrupting my teams workflow.
The issue is hard to explain but I will provide screen shots and code snippets to help people understand the problems we are facing.
We have a project that we recently moved to VisualStudio 2013 from 2010 and upgraded it to .Net 4.5, the project is a ASP.net Web Forms project.
The code compiles and runs but oddly when I change any of the class files sometimes even just adding a comment 'Test Comment it fails to compile.
The errors shown in the error window are all wierd and the IntelliSense shows errors in the wrong place, some of the errors are even completly off. An example is _To is not defined in the line Dim _Town as String or in the same line 'ring' is not defined which is oviously part of the word String
ScreenShots
Here are some of the errors after I added the failing code at line 44 and then commented it out and re-compiled
What I've tried
I've tried to change the files line endings and make sure they are all Windows CR+LF, I've tried snooping in the build output nothing I can really see to help me.
I even brung the solution down from source control on another machine to test and it had the same issue. It didn't actually compile properly at all on the new machine but I don't know yet if these two issues are related.
I had the same issue as yours, and also the same scenario (I had upgraded a very old VB.NET project to a 2013 project).
The issue seem to be related to file encoding. I don't know the exact cause, but it might be having multiple files with different encoding (In my case, some files were ANSI, other files were UTF-8 w/ BOM).
If you aren't sure about having files with different encoding, open them in Notepad++. You should see the file encoding in the bottom-right corner.
At first, I have convert the offending file to ANSI to see if this will resolve the problem. I opened the offending file in Notepad++, selected Encoding-Convert to ANSI, Saved, Encoding->Encode In UTF-8 without BOM, Saved and Reloaded the file in VS. Now the project compile successfully.
However, I didn't want to do this every time I changed the file, (since VS convert it back to UTF8), therefore I copied all the old files (In my case they were 4 files only) to a temporary directory, deleted the files from VS and created new files with the same name, and I copy/pasted the content into each file. Now all my files are in UTF8, and I am no longer having this issue.
The solution is to either convert your files to ANSI as UTF8, or convert them to UTF8 (This seems to be the default encoding for newly created files in Visual Studio, so I suggest converting them to UTF8)
If you have a lot of files I think you can try to convert them to UTF8 using Notepad++.

I want my plugin (an automated termination analysis tool) to run on code the user selects inside Eclipse. Naturally, the user selects source code (a .java file, a method in the outline, ...). However, my program needs the compiled .class file(s) as input.
How can I get the .class files for selected source items? Related to this, how can I get a bytecode descriptor to the selected source method? In case of generics and varargs transforming a (Eclipse) source descriptor to the corresponding bytecode descriptor seems nontrivial to me.
I do not want to run javac on my own and I do not want to guess how the .class file is named (this is nasty for inner classes) and then try to find it on the disk (if it exists? maybe I can force Eclipse to compile?).
The Bytecode Outline plugin uses the following solution (see JdtUtils.getByteCodePath):
Based on the source element, find the output location, e.g. /home/user/workspace/project/build/)
Use the package information to find the right directory inside build/, e.g. /home/user/workspace/project/build/some/package/
Find the "outermost" class definition (important for inner classes), use this name as the file name of the .class file, e.g. /home/user/workspace/project/build/some/package/Foo.class
in case of an inner class, do weird magic (JdtUtils.getClassName) and modify the name of the resulting class file accordingly (maybe resulting in Foo$1.class)
So the problem of this question is solved, where the translation of inner classes to the corresponding file names could be improved. According to the author, though, the current approach (using "magic") works for "95% of the cases" and he does not know about any related bugs in the past few years.
I have files named xxx.java.i,xxx.java.d,xxx.jar.i. I know that these file are somehow related to Java. What does this extension mean and for what is it used? Is it same type as the .class extension?
You should look at your build system for more information. It is possible that these are intermediate files that get transformed and renamed to ".java". For example, I've seen various build systems that use the ".i" suffix to mean "input", and perform various forms of variable substitution (e.g. changing something like "{VERSION_NUMBER}" to the version number of the library being compiled).
I think they are created by someone to serve his own purpose and unless we ask the author or see the content we won't know what it the purpose is.
If you see garbled characters, it's probably java bytecode and you can use some decompiler to see the code (see: How do I "decompile" Java class files?).
