Re: How to recover source code from a dll that's compiled in debug release

Hi Peter

I wonder how then asp.net is able to return error messages with exact line
number and the code on that line whenever it encounters an error. It must
somehow stores the data somewhere. Anyway to get to that? I know it doesn't
store comment, but it does seem that it stores source code, nevertheles.

Thanks

No. If you want to source, you could try reverse engineering the
assemblies using tools like Reflector, but that will not give you the
exact code that was used to compile with, only an interpretation since the
compiler does optimization and stuff.

I lost my laptop as well as my backup server. I am wondering if there is a
way to step through the code without the source code, but only with the
dll and pdb (which are compiled in debug mode) through vs.studio at all? I
do have these files as they are stored on a remote site for testing.

Any idea? thanks in advance.
