+ update 2020: WARNING - support of the decompiler is now VERY LIMITED. There are no active developers. This means we will NOT develop new features and/or fix most of bugs. We left the tracker running in case somebody from community would like to work on it. Sorry for the inconvenience.
List of issues#101 AS 1/2 while + increment/decrement

Labels: AS1/2Decompilation
State: closed 
> What steps will reproduce the problem?
While loop that contains an increment or decrement in its condition part decompiles into
infinite loop (do ... while(true)).
> What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
while (a--)
{
b = a * 2;
}
vs
do
{
register4=register4-1;
if(register4)
{
register5=register4*2;
continue;
}
}
while(true);

version 1.6.1 was released. This issue should be fixed.

Hi,
the problem persists. Now the given example produces only
function init($start, $end)
{
var register4=$start;
var register5=$end;
register4++;
}
instead of what is in .as file.

Version 1.6.2 was released.
New loop detection algorithm should solve this, try it.

Hi,
still have 2 flaws:
1. For the given example it misses else clause in
if(register4>register5)
{
while(register4--)
{
register5=register4*2;
}
} <=== here other while should go to else clause
while(register4--<0)
{
register5=register4+2;
}
You can see it in source as well as in p-code:
If loc00ec
...
loc00e7:Jump loc011d
loc00ec:Push register4 register4
...
2. It works for decrement, but the same snippet with increment produces wrong code and
raises a few exceptions:
