Hello All
I want to Decompile a C#.net dll to get its equivalent .CS files.Does anyone knows a software that can do this for me,of course the free version that does complete reverse engineering.can anyone help me in this matter?

Farhan

Try looking for the Salamander decompiler
http://www.remotesoft.com/salamander/

Thanks for reading !

Free and perfect :
http://www.aisto.com/roeder/dotnet/

download the first prog "Reflector for .NET".

How to use it :
1. launch it
2. select your .NET version
3. File > Open, select your dll
4. In the node tree, right click on the function you want to see "Disassemble"
5. enjoy ;)

Also, if you have access to the Visual Studio .NET SDK there is a disassembler in there as well.

Reflector is very good:

However, you should be aware that (depending on the circumstances) decompiling a dll or exe may often be illegal. Also be aware that you won't be able to retrieve original local variable names or comments, which makes it very hard to understand the original code. If the assembly was obfuscated, then it's harder still.

That is not entirely true Doknjas, I looked into salamander to see what it was all about and used their online decompiler to decompile a dummy web app that I created, and it gave me the complete source code right there. It also claims to beat obfuscation, however, I didnt see if this was true as I did not use Dotfuscator on my code.

In any case, you are quite right, decompiling or reverse engineering is normally illegal by most modern EULAs.

It's different I guess for web pages. Did it give you comments and local variable names for compiled dll's ?

With their web version you are limited to decompiling only the first 5 methods but after decompilation it was like I was looking at the code in Visual Studio.
