Dear Christophe
My Point is like this :::: .c source code/file/s --------- .obj file/s is done by the C compiler .obj file/s ------ .exe binary file is done by the Linker(Assembly Language) In the same way can we do the following steps to extract the .c source code/files as follows Step 1 : .exe binary file ------ Linker (assembly language) .......... .obj file/s Step 2 : .obj file/s -------- .c (Compiler) source code file/s Is it Right or i am going somewhere illogical?
