        loader_input_t

Proxy of C++ loader_input_t class.

A helper class to work with linput_t related functions. This class is also used by file loaders scripts.

Instance Methods

loader_input_t

__init__(self, pycapsule=None)
Closes the file

__repr__(self)
repr(x)

__swig_destroy__(self)

close(self)

int

file2base(self, pos, ea1, ea2, patchable)
Load portion of file into the database This function will include (ea1..ea2) into the addressing space of the program (make it enabled)

PyObject *

filename(self)

PyObject *

get_char(self)

linput_t *

get_linput(self)

PyObject *

gets(self, len)
Reads a line from the input file.

PyObject *

getz(self, sz, fpos=-1)
Returns a zero terminated string at the given position

bool

open(self, filename, remote=False)
Opens a file (or a remote file)

bool

open_memory(self, start, size=0)
Create a linput for process memory (By internally calling idaapi.create_memory_linput()) This linput will use dbg->read_memory() to read data

bool

opened(self)
Checks if the file is opened or not

PyObject *

read(self, size)
Reads from the file.

PyObject *

readbytes(self, size, big_endian)
Similar to read() but it respect the endianness

int64

seek(self, pos, whence=SEEK_SET)
Set input source position

set_linput(self, linput)
Links the current loader_input_t instance to a linput_t instance

int64

size(self)

int64

tell(self)
Returns the current position

Method Details

init(self, pycapsule=None)
(Constructor)

Closes the file

Returns: loader_input_t
Overrides: object.__init__

repr(self)
(Representation operator)

repr(x)

Overrides: object.__repr__: (inherited documentation)

file2base(self, pos, ea1, ea2, patchable)

Load portion of file into the database This function will include (ea1..ea2) into the addressing space of the program (make it enabled)

Parameters:

li - pointer ot input source
pos - position in the file
(ea1..ea2) - range of destination linear addresses
patchable - should the kernel remember correspondance of file offsets to linear addresses.

Returns: int

1-ok,0-read error, a warning is displayed

gets(self, len)

Reads a line from the input file. Returns the read line or None

Returns: PyObject *

getz(self, sz, fpos=-1)

Returns a zero terminated string at the given position

Parameters:

sz - maximum size of the string
fpos - if != -1 then seek will be performed before reading

Returns: PyObject *

The string or None on failure.

open(self, filename, remote=False)

Opens a file (or a remote file)

Returns: bool: Boolean

open_memory(self, start, size=0)

Create a linput for process memory (By internally calling idaapi.create_memory_linput()) This linput will use dbg->read_memory() to read data

Parameters:

start - starting address of the input
size - size of the memory range to represent as linput if unknown, may be passed as 0

Returns: bool

read(self, size)

Reads from the file. Returns the buffer or None

Returns: PyObject *

seek(self, pos, whence=SEEK_SET)

Set input source position

Returns: int64: the new position (not 0 as fseek!)
