The following review written by one of the Software Informer contributors applies to version 1.8
Easy JAVA to Source Converter, developed by Armenian Dictionary Inc., is a very easy-to-use yet powerful tool for those who need to decompile and disassemble JAVA based routines. Upon the creation of JAVA code, a compiled binary CLASS file is written on the computer. That file is normally unreadable, but with the help of this application you will be able to read it. It is used for what is usually called as Reverse Engineering, or in a common slang known as copy. What this awesome tool does is reconstructing the original source code from the compiled binary CLASS files, so you can know how it was written originally. It is able to decompile complex Java applets and binaries, producing accurate source code.
In the promotional web page you won’t find suggested the copy activities, naturally, since it’s a pretty obvious illegal activity unless you have permission of the creator, in which case you could directly get the source code and you wouldn’t need this tool. So it’s said to be oriented to developers who could have lost or accidentally destroyed their source codes.
