Decompile Java applications (JAR/WAR/APK/class) — extract archives, detect obfuscators, decompile bytecode to source, analyse license logic and secrets.

Java Decompiler
Purpose
Java bytecode (.class) retains nearly all source-level information, making decompilation highly effective. This skill extracts, decompiles, and analyses Java applications across all packaging formats: JAR, WAR, EAR, APK, and raw class files.
Workflow
Usage
Decompiler Priority
| Tool | Best for | Install | |
|---|---|---|---|
| CFR | General JAR/class (best output quality) | Download cfr.jar | |
| Procyon | Complex generics, lambdas | Download procyon-decompiler.jar | |
| FernFlower | IntelliJ-style output | Download fernflower.jar | |
| JADX | Android APK (dex → java directly) | pip install jadx or download | |
| javap | Fallback bytecode listing | Included with JDK |
Outputs
| File | Content | |
|---|---|---|
src/ | Decompiled .java source files | |
manifest.json | Parsed MANIFEST.MF + entry points | |
obfuscation.json | Detected obfuscator + evidence | |
java_analysis.json | License logic, secrets, endpoints, dependencies |
When to use
binary-identifierreports Java language- Target is a
.jar,.war,.ear,.apk, or.classfile - Target contains
META-INF/MANIFEST.MForclasses.dex
Anti-patterns
| Mistake | Fix | |
|---|---|---|
| Using only one decompiler | CFR fails on some patterns → fallback to Procyon/FernFlower | |
| Ignoring MANIFEST.MF | Contains Main-Class, classpath, version — always parse | |
| Skipping obfuscator detection | Deobfuscate first (string decryption) for readable output | |
| Treating APK as JAR | APK uses DEX bytecode — needs dex2jar or JADX, not cfr directly | |
| Missing inner classes | Inner classes are separate .class files — decompile the whole JAR |
