Folks,
Infocus had a Unidata decompiler (Xtrico) which we stopped development
and licensing on a number of years ago. I am not aware of any others under
development.
Cheers,
Lee

dig up information on this but it would be great if Lee, Peggy or Jeff could
put their two cents in on this.

I don't know of any UniData UniBasic object code decompiler utilities.
Certainly none ever created by the UniData engineering team.

Does anyone know how to find out more information about 'IBM's compiler'?
(see http://www.mail-archive.com/u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org/msg10843.html )
Does anyone know where to locate a decompiler (or decompiler service) for
UNIBASIC (UNIDATA BASIC)?
Does anyone know how to access the 'free decompiler that Universe provides'?

When you need to recover the BASIC source code for PI/open or UniVerse systems,
your ultimate source is found at www.srs4uv.com. The srs4uv team has helped
companies, government agencies and learning institutions around the globe with
their source recoveries for over 22 years. Many srs4uv customers tried IBM's
PI/open decompiler beforehand and seem amazed at how easy the recovered
programs are to read and maintain.
</AD>
While the PI/open decompiler provided by IBM was a technically accurate
utility, the maintainability of their recovered source code leaves much to be
desired. IBM's decompiler failed to perform logical structure recovery, the
most important quality, as this impacts the long-term maintainability of the
programs. (There are other deficiencies with IBM's decompiler, such as,
maintainable common member naming, reversing equated variable expressions, and
recovering programs with certain internal-use statements. Please contact me
directly for additional information on these PI/open recovery issues.)
The logical structure for LOOP-REPEAT, FOR-NEXT and CASE statements, like
IF-THEN-ELSE statements, are translated by a BASIC compiler into conditional
and unconditional branch instructions. IBM's PI/open decompiler took the
lazy-mans approach to decompiling, returning conditional branches as IF-THEN
statements and unconditional branches as GOTO statements. As you might imagine,
IBM's results look like a pile of spaghetti code. The srs4uv decompilers
analyze the branch patterns to recover all of the high-level logical
structures, making the recovered source code look as good, if not better, than
the original source code.
Best regards,
Gyle
