How to decompile dll file

(3) ShareShare

Posted on by 438
I'm giving a product to a customer in a deployable package form.. is that any way he could decompile the dll file and see the actual code?! 
 
I'm aware that dotPeek exists that shows the name of the methods but it doesn't show any code.

    As far as I know, you can't decompile the DLL since you don't have the code.

    There are several other decompilers (e.g. ILSpy); try if the result is the same with another one.
     
    Does the type have method bodies? For example, isn't is an interface.
     
    Of course, Mohamed's is wrong when suggesting the answer that decompilation isn't possible (implying that those decompilers don't exist).

    Did you try clicking on that method to see the code? Because it shows only methods. Then you need to double click and see the underlying code.
