Is there any way to get the source code back after java compilation - I think those are *.jar files?
If yes how it can be done? any software or need programming?

One of my friend saying if u have to get the compiled file code it takes double or more time than one made such program for development. I want to know is that possible and how ?

yes there is a very simple way to get original code back.
but variable names in original code will not be the same in decompiled code.

here's the name of software that decompiles java file:
DJ Decompiler try finding it on google.

bye...

visit the homepage of jcavaj http://www.bysoft.se/sureshot/jcavaj/

or search for jcavaj in google.

if u want to see the source of a *.jar file just add it in the classpath of jcavaj after selecting it from the menubar.

u can also check out cavaj java decompiler or the decafe-pro., but both of these takes *.class files.
