Eclipse Mars Java Decompiler

Question

I just started to use Eclipse Mars as development environment. I used to have jd-eclipse decompiler installed in older eclipse versions. When I try to install the same plugins for this one, I could not.

I need a decompiler in eclipse, hoping someone to come up with a solution proposal.

Thank you.

If eclipse doesn't have jad plug in, try to install from eclipse market place. Last week, I had downloaded eclipse Mars and it had had plug in. Not sure why it was missed in your download. — harshavmb, Dec 19 '15 at 09:00
I have double checked but no sound again. No result is found when I search "jadclipse" in eclipse marketplace. — gurkan, Dec 22 '15 at 18:27

I don't find the step and URL. Here I used

Step 1: Go to  Help -> Install New Software  -> click on 'Add'
Step 2: On pop-up fill these below details:
            Name:       JavaDecompiler
            Location:   http://jd.benow.ca/jd-eclipse/update/
Step 3: Click on checkbox - Java Decomplier Eclipse Plug-in.
Step 4: Click -> Next -> Next -> Accept The Agreement -> Finish
Step 5: Click on check-box -> Accept the trust certificate -> OK
Step 6:   Restart the eclipse.

Hope this help!

Worked for eclipse Mars. But not de-compiling few classes like java.util.function.Function. – Chirag Aug 11 '16 at 19:09
My JRE was pointing to JRE folder, changed it to JDK and now can de-compile all classes. – Chirag Aug 11 '16 at 20:55
As of 2019 that update site is dead, RockyMM answer is working (the comments in it anyways). – jotadepicas May 17 '19 at 23:02
@Anshu Kumar The location http://jd.benow.ca/jd-eclipse/update/ no longer exists – Nevin Feb 17 '20 at 05:40

Eclipse Class Decompiler plugin is delisted from the Eclipse Marketplace due to being bundled with adware, as explained in Eclipse Foundation security bulletin (thanks to @slowhand for pointing this out).

There is an adware-free fork here on Eclipse Marketplace with homepage here.

I would strongly suggest against installing the original Eclipse Class Decompiler!

It is now at https://github.com/cnfree/Eclipse-Class-Decompiler . But the adware warning from https://www.eclipse.org/org/press-release/20170814_security_bulletin.php most likely still applies. – slowhand Nov 14 '18 at 00:43
I was not aware of these problems... I will update my response accordingly. – Rade_303 Nov 15 '18 at 11:07

Looks like recommended option is http://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/jadclipse-eclipse-4x but currently update site for this plugin is unavaiable for some reason
