dex2jar
dex2jar Applications are developed by programmers using a variety of libraries and tools. It can be very painful to get these tools one by one. As a result, a program that can download as many tools as possible is required. This is exactly what this program does. It is made up of a number of libraries and tools that work with Android.dex and Java.class files. Programmers will be able to quickly access the tools and libraries they require through this program, making the development process more efficient and seamless. appsfire
This programming tool consists primarily of development libraries and a set of script files. This collection's assembled parts are usable right away; so that you can begin using them immediately after downloading the package. Dalvik Executable (DEX) translator is one of the libraries that can convert DEX files to ASM files. A portable API for reading ODEX and DEX files is yet another component. The collection's third library is DEX-IR. It was made to help interpret DEX instructions. The final library is DEX-Tools, which can be used for modifying APKs and performing other tasks. Because they are open-source, you can change them to make them work better.
dex2jar contains following compment
- dex-reader is designed to read the Dalvik Executable (.dex/.odex) format. It has a light weight API similar with ASM.
- dex-translator is designed to do the convert job. It reads the dex instruction to dex-ir format, after some optimize, convert to ASM format.
- dex-ir used by dex-translator, is designed to represent the dex instruction
- dex-tools tools to work with .class files.
- d2j-smali disassemble dex to smali files and assemble dex from smali files. different implementation to smali/baksmali, same syntax, but we support escape in type desc "Lcom/dex2jar\t\u1234;"
- dex-writer write dex same way as dex-reader.
