Maybe if you're lucky, Time Machine will have a copy *anyway*. While
Time Machine is running, a directory is created with the extension
".inProgress." Navigate to the location of your time machine backups
and check inside that directory. You'll need to do this either in the
Finder or at the command line--not from the Time Machine GUI. (Btw,
Time Machine is *supposed* to delete old backups when your disk gets
full. That's what it does for us, anyway.)
Alternatively, you could try opening the file in TextWrangler or
BBEdit. They'll open anything. Again, if you're lucky, there may be
something usable in there.
Lastly, maybe you have an object file sitting around. "otool -tV"
will disassemble it, but that won't look anything remotely like C++.
A quick search didn't reveal any way to reverse compile, but that
doesn't mean it's not possible.

Of course I have an svn repository, and I also do time machine
backups, but I haven't done that in a month because time machine
doesn't backup anymore when your hard drive is filled up.
So you either have a solution in mind or avoid replying to my
message.... PLEASE!!!!!!!!!! SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You're telling us you have a single copy of your hard work in a
single place, it never gets backed up using something like Time
Machine or dot Mac Backup, and it never gets committed to an any
kind of revisioning system?
THOSE are the other ways.
For some people, losing valuable data is what is required in order
to NOT lose valuable data. Seriously.

It's been more than a month since I did a backup, you're telling
me that all that is time lost? There has to be another way.

Hello everyone,
I was working with xcode and my battery run out and the machine
powered off. When I turned the machine back on, and I saw the
file I was working on, it was completely damaged!!! It looks
like a binary file and I think I lost all the C++ code I've been
working over a year.
Can anyone give me any suggestions on what to do???? I really
need that file,
aa
