  • 1.  Is it possible to load compiled Uniface objects into Oracle database?

    Posted 12-04-2023 12:48

    We installed a Uniface application that has a uar file with all the compiled Uniface objects. When I tried to access the objects from IDE, I was not able to see the objects. Is there a way to import the objects from the uar file into the Oracle database? If the answer is yes, how should I do that? Uniface version is 10.3.02.

    Thanks,

    Anthony

    The answer is canonically no as far as I am aware. You cannot go from compiled back to source code.

    The best AFAIK, is to run the application and go to the debugger browser.  Here you can find all the trigger/entry/operation source code in a component.  

    But you could never recreate the DICT, from compiled objects.  I doubt the compiled objects know even where they came from(e.g. UXFIELD/UCFIELD).
