Delphi Decompiler Dede Now

Reverse engineering legacy software requires specialized tools capable of translating compiled machine code back into human-readable structures. For applications built using Borland Delphi, one tool stands out historically as a foundational asset for analysts: .

current_component = None indent_stack = []

What is your ? (e.g., recovering lost source code, finding a bug, analyzing a file?) Are you working with a 32-bit or 64-bit executable?

# Detect event handlers if prop_name.lower().endswith('on'): # Event handler reference event_handler = EventHandler( event_name=prop_name, method_name=prop_value, rva=0 # Would need actual RVA calculation ) component.events.append(event_handler) else: # Regular property prop_type = self._guess_property_type(prop_value) rtti_prop = RTTIProperty( name=prop_name, value=prop_value, prop_type=prop_type ) component.properties[prop_name] = rtti_prop

💡 : Use DeDe alongside a debugger like x64dbg or OllyDbg to step through the code once DeDe gives you the correct entry points. If you'd like, I can: Help you install and set up DeDe Explain how to handle obfuscated files

If you want, I can:

Because DeDe is a well‑known tool, many Delphi protectors and packers include specific anti‑DeDe defenses. These can check for DeDe’s window class name (“DeDe”) or modify the binary in ways that confuse DeDe’s parser. The variant tries to circumvent such checks by renaming internal identifiers, but aggressive commercial protectors (like Armadillo, ASProtect, or Enigma Protector) will still render DeDe ineffective.
