Is there already, or is anyone working on a disassembler/
assembler for Java? That is, something which takes a Java
.class file, the attached bytecodes, &c., and turns it into
human-readable form, which could be edited and turned back
into a .class file.
It seems like the kind of thing that would likely already
exist within Sun (hint, hint) but would be useful to those
of us doing research on the security properties of Java
or to those wanting to write their own compilers.
I have made a running start at this, but it is a formidable
task and there is no point in duplicated efforts.
