Vulcan.net Decompile add-in available until July

Post by xnetExplorer »

Hi,

This isn't a suggestion, more like an fyi for any who might be interested.

Some years back in the Vulcan.net days, I used .net Reflector to help me understand the framework a little better.

So you could take an executable compiled from C# or VB.net code, and decompile it into any of the supported languages, including Vulcan.net

Last week, I discovered that the source for the plugin is available. in fact, pretty much all of the .net reflector plugins are available with source.


https://archive.codeplex.com/?p=reflectoraddins

https://codeplexarchive.blob.core.windo ... addins.zip


Note:

1. The Vulcant.net plugin worked for a previous version of .net reflector. Mine was 7.4.5.20. I don't even know if the newer versions of .net reflector have plugins anymore.

2. The Vulcan plugin isn't listed on the page, but can be found in the download, including source.

Dan,

That plugin was written by our Fabrice :)
The same guy that wrote the X# plugin for ILSpy that we now all use.

Hi Dan,
nice to see that this work is still on the run ;)
You can get versions for Reflector 6,7 and 8 there : https://fabtoys.net/download/vulcan-net/detail (Not sure that the CodePlex code is the latest version, I may publish it on GitHub if it raise some interest)
After that, I did not renew the Reflector licence, and in order compile the AddIn, I had to have the Reflector binaries. So I moved to ILSpy which offers much the same features.
