compiling in c - gcc

[julianus]

Hi all!

Today i was writing some c code for my university data structure course
and i made an error in gcc compilation....so i have the .out file which is working
perfectly but i dont have (it has been erased) the source .c file.Is there any way to
get the source file from the .out file (inverse process than compiling) or i must write again ALL (oh God!) the code ?

Thanx in advance

There is no magic bullet here, I'm afraid.

If deleting the source file is something that is dangerously easy (we all work in different environments, so this is nothing to be embarrassed about), you may wish to consider backing up your entire working directory to some other directory at regular intervals.

That won't help you in your current situation, I know. My condolences. I've been there.

This means you're making a backup copy at regular intervals, right? :)
