How to retrieve contents of COD files? - blackberry

I want the contents of cod files of a running application in blackberry ,so is it possible? if yes then how is it possible? Thanks in advance.

I do not think it is possible to do this with running applications. I think there would be some bad security concerns.
In general, I do not think you will be able to decompile & view the contents of the COD files.
But some people say that a tool called Coddec works.

How to debug epub?

I've written an ePub generator by using ZipArchive in .NET and looking at the spec (in Wikipedia) & a example.
It doesn't work! But I only get a generic error so I'm unable to fix anything from here.
Where could I go to upload my ePub and be told what is wrong with it? Or is there a tool that is better for it? I'm currently using Adobe ePub reader...
I realize this is an old question, but in case others come across this I wanted to contribute. The IDPF which is responsible for the ePub standard has a tool for checking ePubs called epubcheck. It can be found at https://github.com/IDPF/epubcheck.
In addition, they have their own online validator that uses epubcheck. It is located at http://validator.idpf.org/
I found an online validator tool at http://www.epubconversion.com/ePub-validator-iBook.jsp.
There are two basic black box approaches.
First: Generate a file and put it into a validator.
Second: Take a set of in- and output without using your code (other generator, example, do it manual). Then use a file comparison tool (maybe extract zip first).
Here is a good offline checking tool for Windows, Mac or Linux OS:

It's a great tool which even i used to validate and generate epub files also clearly give errors if any.

Is it possible to do Reverse Engineering in Blackberry to get code for .cod file.?

I have some .cod files and want to use some features from those files , so that i want to do reverse engg in blackberry.Is it possible.If yes,then how?
Thanks in advance.
I'm guessing you mean you want to decompile it, not reverse engineer it? There are some decompilers out there that exist for BlackBerry COD files, but I've read on the BB forums that people say they don't work too well. However, from your post it sounds like you are trying to use someone else's COD file, which would be illegal. If they wanted you to have the source, they'd make it available.
Maybe it's possible to extract .class files and view them with jshrink?

Is it possible to embed and run exe file in a Delphi executable app?

Resource files (.RES) accept any kind of binary files but if it is an exe file how can I run it?
You would have to extract it as a file to disk and execute it.
Although you don't have to extract it to disk, as Cosmin Prund says in a comment, if you don't it requires a lot of hard work.

Take a look at this memory execution unit.It allows you to execute an exe from memory without dumping it on disk.
Yes it is possible. There is a Delphi library to do this somewhere on the web, but I cannot for the life of me remember what it's called. It allows you to execute a normal exe file no-matter where it is in memory. So you can load it into a stream, or just embed it in a resource.
I realize that my reply is a bit depressing since i dont remember the name of the library, but at least you now know that it can be done. If you google around for "execute PE exe from memory" and "Delphi" then I'm sure you will find it.
You might want to take a look at Orean's XBundler: http://www.oreans.com/xbundler.php
I use their licensing product (WinLicense) and have been very happy with the product, their support, responsiveness and updates.
In fact, I'm about to buy XBundler so I can ship a dll securely embedded in my exe.

Convert cod to jar in blackberry

Hii Folks,
I've a cod file to run on blackberry device but i want to convert it into jar. Is it possible to do so??Is their any script or is their any tool exist for that kindly suggest me regarding this??
The short answer is "no." There's a tool Coddec that is supposed to help with this, but it's pretty flakey. I've never gotten it to work. It's also rather old and even if you could get it to work, it probably would only be good for cod files generated by older versions of the tools.

Tools and methods for localization of ASP.NET application needed

We have a multilingual site that is currently using 2 languages, but with several others coming soon. The site is localized primarily by resx files, but with some localized data in a database.
We need to find some tools to manage localization of the site - something that picks up on changes in resx files so translators will only need to translate new or updated texts.
Any ideas or recommendations? We're also interested in any articles about the logistics of localization if anyone has some.
I'm researching this area as we speak and I came across your post. I'm not sure if this is any help but in the past we used RCWinTrans for our localization. This was for mutiple C++/MFC products although it does support .Net . We would have a RCWinTrans project for each language/product we intended to support although you could have multiple languages in a single project. It kept track of state (i.e. not-translated, translated, changed, etc) and would allow us to export the strings to an excel spreadsheet which we could then send onto a translator. They would updated the spreadsheet and we would reimport the data.
Hope this helps, apologies if I'm on the wrong track and I'm teaching grandma to suck egss. I will be creating another thread today with a similar requirement to this btw, but with a few more snagettes - might be worth a look to see if I get any answers. Cheers, Roger
An idea might be to have all the localization data the database (or a localization database), this way one could build the localization tools/interface as part of the application and poyentially use it for many applications?
There is a free tool called Resource Translation Helper ( http://www.winking.be/resource-translation-helper )
Install it
Point it to your project directory
Export to excel (.xls)
Give the excel to your translaters and let them update the columns.
Import the updated xls file again
The tool creates also a file to map the resx translation to the excel rows. Don't remove that or you will not be able to import again.
Works very good, but backup your data before adjusting things ;-)
You cant try to use this Visual Studio extension https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/2676967b-0516-4f5f-b312-6873e2f9d219.
It allows to export/import your project resources to/from excel and to add new cultures.
Old question, but I would like to add http://www.zeta-resource-editor.com/index.html
Free tool for .NET resource files.
This directly edits the resource files, no need to ex-/import.
