Hi all,

I'm wondering if I can somehow see the source code from a bin file. We have an application that was written in Microsoft C/C++ and we only have a bin file. The company that wrote it for us never gave us the source and they are extinct. Is it possible to see the code from just the bin file?

Thanks for the help.

 
Not really but if it is quite small, you can reconstruct it. C++ is a bit more difficult because of inheritence and virtual functions. C is a lot easier.
