在eclipse中找不到Java源代码

Question

In an xpages application a javav source code was added to the Local folder within the Lotus nsf file. Now can not be seen, and can not be found with search. The code still woking, but it is not possible to modify it. How to get the source code back?

Answer 1

The name "Local" is short for "Never-put-your-own-stuff-here-because-we-remove-it-without-warning-and-it-is-actually-not-inside-the-nsf". But that name was too long even for IBM naming standards, so we call it local.

Matter of fact: the NSF does not contain a local folder . It is on that one machine where you added in in your workspace directory (if you are lucky). On build the code is compiled and the class file stored into the NSF (this is why it works).

You have to go back to the original machine and hope the java file is still there (or in the machines Trash bin). Create a separate source folder under web-inf and add it to the classpath (or in 8.5.3++ use the Java Design element).

If that is gone: use a decompiler
