dotPeek creates really simple names for local scope variables like listand list1, JustDecompiler seems to create more meaningful names like attachedAnnotations.JustDecompiler shows a Dictionary TryGetValue method with a ref parameter, dotPeek shows the correct out.dotPeek seems to want to cast everything in the source code.It looks strange too as its last line is base() which is not even legal. It might not seem an important thing, but an internal class gains a weird public constructor in order to place the declaration there, instead of using the only internal constructor that the class had. JustDecompiler places inline member declarations in constructors, dotPeek shows it inline.It also has no text saving options yet.Īs the decompiled sources were, I noticed these differences: The context menu is not nearly as useful as dotPeek's, but there are a lot of options in the top toolbar and the navigation via links is fast and intuitive. The decompilation is a bit weird at first, since it shows only the method names and for a second there I thought it was as bad as Reflector was, but then I noticed the Expand All Members button. JustDecompile starts reasonably fast and it also has a nice look, being build with Telerik controls and what not. NET runtime optimization service, mscorsvw, called by ngen) But that's just the delivery system. msi took forever, including the mandatory 100% CPU utilization bit that I will never understand in installation products. Most developers like to see what they are installing and preferably just copy it from a file archive.

No one likes a registration form, folks! Especially one that presents you with wonderful prechecked checkboxes for permission for Telerik to send you all kind of stupid promotions and newsletters.

Unfortunately, to download JustDecompile, they need you to have a Telerik login in order to download, which, as everyone knows, simply sucks. Hopefully, they will provide a rich plugin model like old Reflector did. But I am sure this is just a detail that was not implemented yet.

What I did not quite like is that it doesn't have yet the functionality to save the sources to text files. Also, I have to say that similar functionality like in ReSharper, finding usages, going to declaration, etc are making dotPeek a very nice tool to work with.

So, even if free, I bet Reflector would have sucked in the end, after getting into the money grabbing hands of RedGate.ĭotPeek has seen and decompiled the code that Reflector did not. Not only it did not decompile it, but it presented empty methods like that was all there was in the code, with no warnings or errors or explicative comments. NET framework 4.0, as I often need to check the sources in order to understand functionality or bugs.Īs a footnote, Reflector, just before it went commercial, could not decompile some of the code there. I have tried dotPeek on WPF's PresentationFramework.dll from the.

It is no secret that JetBrains is a company that I respect a lot, as they made ReSharper, the coolest tool I've ever had the pleasure to work with, but I will try to be as unbiased as possible in comparing the options. Telerik, for example, has just released JustDecompile, beta version.
#REFLECTOR 2 TAKING FOREVER SOFTWARE#
A total news to me, but not really a surprise, other software companies decided to build their own version in order to boost their visibility in the developer world. JetBrains promised a free decompiler tool and they have kept their word as they have released an early build. But every crisis can be turned into an opportunity. They bought Reflector, promised to keep it free, then asked money for it. As I was blogging before, RedGate are assholes.
