Hello... What tool can decompile a DLL into C++ source code? This might be impossible or at least very hard. The DLL's contents don't depend (a lot) on it being written in C++; it's all machine code. That code might have been optimized so a lot of information that was present in the original source code is simply gone. About obfuscation for FreePascal / Lazarus and Delphi compiled files Just compiling with optimizations (-O2 and up) and stripping all debug and profile information, and apply smartlinking, will make it almost un-decompilable. Not only FPC, but also Delphi. I remember using Delphi decompilers for Delphi 6 and they were unable to decompile any actual code except resources. Thank you, Amine Moulay Ramdane.
