Decompiling
The result of compiling your Java source programs is cross-platform bytecode, that is similar to pseudo assembly language. The process of converting this back to source code is called reverse engineering or decompiling. This is feasible because much of the information contained in the original source code remains in the bytecode. Imagine you downloaded a Java application and you'd like to know how they achieved a certain kind of functionality. You can achieve this with decompilers like Mocha, but sometimes partially. Authors that want their source protected from being decompiled better look into obfuscators.
