decompile an app binary to get back to source code

Question

Hi,

Is their anyway to take a binary - even signed by yourself, and get back to the code? Im trying to recover something that I deleted a while ago... but have the binary here.

Any ideas?

Cheers Guys Sam

Answer 1

You can disassemble a binary and get back assembly source, but there is no way to get back your original Objective-C structured source code.

Answer 2

Sounds like there's no way to examine if .app is safe to run.
