There are some programs available which can retrieve source code from .class files! I used one such program (http://www.bysoft.se/sureshot/cavaj/index.html) and found it is working!
Then what is the security of Java class files?

theres an interesting document at javaworld that discusses protecting your source code from decomiplers.
You can find it here http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/j...javatip22.html
That's pretty cool. It's funny that the author
of Mocha, Hanpeter van Vliet, is also the
author of Crema. :p I wonder how the program
is still able to compile even though symbolic
information is scrambled. :confused:
I've used a program called Zelix Classmaster that obfuscates your java code. It basically makes it harder to read by renaming your classes and variables to serially numbered vowels.
