I'd suggest that what this thread really gets to an important issue - how to _ask_ a question. The orignal poster asked a question but didn't provide enough information for the list to really respond properly. If you have backups and know you can restore from backup and want to learn if you can reverse engineer something for grins, well then say so and help the group provide you useful information rather than whack you about the head and shoulders for failing to properly backup your system.

Re: [PHP] Reverse Engineering of Smarty
Hi All, Accidentally I got deleted all of my php code in one of my application, I was using smarty and its compiled directory has the code in its native format. Is there any way so I can do some type of reverse engineering to bring back my original code? Any suggestion? Thanks in advance. Zareef Ahmed Yeah, like that's what happened. tedd -- http://sperling.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Reverse Engineering of Smarty
There is unfortunately no way to reverse your code back, the only thing you can do is google for file recovery techniques or just recode the whole thing. If you don't have time for that, maybe something like http://www.joomla.org/ could save your day. Hope that helps Pat On 2/5/06, Zareef Ahmed [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All, Accidentally I got deleted all of my php code in one of my application, I was using smarty and its compiled directory has the code in its native format.

Re: [PHP] Reverse Engineering of Smarty
Hi All, A lot of talk on that topic. Actually project was very small, Accidentally deleted that, was going to restore it from backup on other filesystem, then just thought that there must be something that can restore from compiled code. So ask the question in this prestigious group, Rightly I got good adjectives ;) Well I am using CVS for all of my projects and do regular backups. Above all filesystem restore is also available in most of such cases. Lets close this thread, we people really have many meaningful questions to answers.

If I'd wanted to be insulting there are a lot worse things I could have said. I also wanted to draw attn to the fact that backups aren't a bad thing (tm)
