first, I do not see why you need more than using the product to determine "what kind of functionality it might have". Functions are sometimes infrequently used or purposely obscured. Reverse engineering may be the only way to make sure you've really covered all the functionality whether said functionality is seen frequently or not. second, I have 'disassembled' when a factory burned and the source was lost and found that the effort to disassemble is way more than the effort to recereate. I agree with that. I don't think reverse engineering is something that makes sense to avoid development costs--it's something that I think can be used to make sure you've covered all the functionality a device offers. This is very important if you're trying to make a compatible device. However, I would never copy the code driving it. Obviously. Regards, Craig Steiner |
