The available library files are listed. Each JDK file corresponds to a
particular version of JDK.

3

Select the file JDK-1_1_8.OOM.

This file contains all the library class files of version 1_1_8 of JDK.

4

Click Open.

The OOM opens in the workspace.

Reverse engineering Java source files without code body

You can reverse engineer .java class source files without the body of the
code. When you reverse classes in this way, the code contained within the
operations of the class does not appear in the reversed class.

You use this option when you want to reverse objects for visualization or
comparison purposes, or to limit the size of your model when you have a very
large number of classes to reverse.

v

To reverse java without code body:

1

Select Language

➤

Reverse Engineer Java.

The Reverse Java dialog box appears.

2

Select the .java radio button.
