Reverse Engineering asp.net web app
Question
I have an asp.net web application. I don't have the source code. The bin contains 10 assemblies and a .compiled file. I used Reflector on the App_Code.dll and it shows me classes and namespaces and stuff, but its such a mess.
Is there any way to reverse engineer this web app that won't take weeks/months to unfold? The application is pretty basic.
Note, the code is written by an engineer that left the company. We own the product.

With reflector you can save the reflected code out to a project which you can load up in Visual Studio. It´s probably your best choice.
What you see is what you get and you just have to wade thru it in order to understand what´s going on in the program. Reading code is no free lunch.

Unfortunately if you don't have the source code, you have one of 3 options:
- Reflector
- Rewrite
- Sue the original dev to give you the source code that you own (IANAL, so YMMV)
