Compiled .NET application - get property value at runtime

Question

I have a piece of software, which is obfuscated. I need to get value of a specific property it assigns to a control. EXE deobfuscation isn't an option. Is there any tool I can use to get the value at runtime? Can it be done in debugger, if yes, then how?

Answer 1

You may be able to get at the information using Spy++, bundled with Visual Studio ( non express ). Very much depends on the information you are actually looking for.

(Edit for actual instructions)

Load Spy++ ( or 64bit ) Chose Spy->Find Window... Drag Find Window Icon onto the Window you are looking for. Find your control.

Answer 2

It won't be easy - the purpose of obfuscation is to stop you doing this.

The easiest approach is to ask the vendor to supply the value to you via a public API. If they say no, then you shouldn't be hacking their software anyway.

我已经分解了可执行文件并修改了IL指令以输出所需的属性，然后重新组装了它。
