Jad - the fast JAva Decompiler

I have started to work for ziqiang.net. It is a pleasant job for me but some source code badly needed is missing. Now I only have some compiled class files at hand. I'm thirsty for a decompiler.

Fortunately, I found jad, an execllent decompiler.

1. You can download it form here.
I am using Linux and hate to solve dependence problems manually, so I downloaded Jad 1.5.8e for Linux (statically linked).

2. Just untar it to a location as you wish.
Make sure that the location is in your PATH variable.

3.add alias jad="jad -sjava " to ~/.bashrc (or any other inital file for your shell)
If not, you have to run jad with arguement -sjava to decompile classes.

Install Linux on HP Jornada 690

I have bought a second hand HP Jornada 690 pda from taobao.com. Maybe it's completely a waste in the views of many people, but I consider it a treature.

The original OS of 690 is WinCE2.1 whose function is limited for it is out-of-date. I am wondering if Linux can run on it. If so, I will be enabled to do more. Fortunately, my need can be easily met by many volunteers' work.

OK, let's start the fantastic journey.

1. Download JLime, a GNU/Linux for 690
Download it from http://www.jlime.com/. (If your machine is 720, please select Mongo. Here I downloaded Donkey)

2.Extract it to your CF card.
Notice:file userland.tar.bz2 contains all the apps and config files. The original GUI in it is Opie. But it is very slow, even slower than WinCE! So I recommend you to download a userland contains IceWM form http://devfiles.jlime.com/Userlands/ . Once you get this file, replace the userland.tar.bz2 with it and rename it ro userland.tar.bz2 .

3.Run shlo.exe in your WinCE which will guide you all the way to JLime!
Notice: When it comes to the partition window, you'd better choose Manual Partition for the Automatic one may cause crash.

If you are using a HP690, you should enable 32MB mode for a better preformance.


4.Now a pda with Linux is right in front of you! Enjoy.

Last Night in University

Chch101 leaves this morning, so does PangShapeng in the afternoon, which leaves me alone
in the dormitory. It is so quiet that I feel as if I were sharing the whole college with nobody.
I will leave tomorrow afternoon. Oh~My winter vocation begins.
