Welcome to boomerang decompiler

This repository is now connected to continous integration server: http://boomerang.nemerle.eu Generated documentation is available at http://boomerang.nemerle.eu/job/Boomerang-next/doxygen/

This is an experimental branch of boomerang project, the inital goals are:

1. try to fix all warnings from gcc -Wall, and clang -Wall
2. verify stability of decompilation results : compare 2 run results, they should be exactly the same.
3. simplify code base using features available in c++11

Considering pt. 3, the target compilers are gcc >=4.6 family (mingw on windows), and clang.

For full ( and slightly stale :) ) build instructions please see

Compiling the 'next' branch

Note that on a debian system you can usually get away with:

  sudo apt-get install libgc-dev
  sudo apt-get install git
  sudo apt-get install cmake
  sudo apt-get install qt5-default
  cd YOUR_FAVOURITE_DEVELOPMENT_DIRECTORY
  git clone git://github.com/nemerle/boomerang.git
  cd boomerang
  mkdir build && cd build
  cmake ..
  make

To compile on windows, it should be enough to have:

• cmake 2.8.12 or newer from http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
• Qt5 mingw package ( version 5.3 or newer ) available from http://www.cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html
• QtCreator - installed as a part of the Qt5.

Testing

After building boomerang You can run the test suite, to do that you will need ruby interpeter and a bash compatible shell.

  ./full_regression.sh

After running full_regression, the tool will report tests on which boomerang crashed. You can also check if Your changes to boomerang, produced any changes in the quality of decompiled code by running YOUR_FAVOURITE_DIFF_GUI ./tests/outputs ./tests/baseline

Additionally, if You enable the test suite option in ( cmake option ), boomerang unit-test can be run by

make test

Thanks.
