I'm trying to figure out how to use the Fernflower Java decompiler.
I can find java-decompiler.jar at the following location:
~/idea-IC-162.1628.40/plugins/java-decompiler/lib/java-decompiler.jar
There is no fernflower.jar, however. I assume this is because the functionality has been folded into java-compiler.jar, and the Fernflower README has simply not been updated in 2 years.
When I run the following, however:
java -jar ~/idea-IC-162.1628.40/plugins/java-decompiler/lib/java-decompiler.jar myclassfile.class .
I get
no main manifest attribute, in /home//idea-IC-162.1628.40/plugins/java-decompiler/lib/java-decompiler.jar
Has IntelliJ stopped supporting command-line based decompilation, or am I missing something here?

Try to invoke main class org.jetbrains.java.decompiler.main.decompiler.ConsoleDecompiler manually
java -cp java-decompiler.jar org.jetbrains.java.decompiler.main.decompiler.ConsoleDecompiler myclassfile.class .
Also you can find more about internal usage of Fernflower inside IDEA by query in source code
