- Example of what it "decompiles" when it hasn't got the source code:
public class mx.core.ByteArrayAsset extends flash.utils.ByteArray
implements mx.core.IFlexAsset
{
native public function ByteArrayAsset():*;
static native mx_internal const VERSION:String = "3.0.0.0";
static native private const mx_internal:* =
"http://www.adobe.com/2006/flex/mx/internal";;
}

Yes you can.
I could be wrong but my guess is it scans all the lib (the lib could be one SWC
or a folder containing SWCs + sources) children's folders for the sources and
maybe tries to match what it has been able to "decompile", while debugging, it
uses the FDB commands to know where it is.
