elias.bachaalany@gmail.com 78c79f85b9 IDA Pro 6.5 support
What's new:
- Proper multi-threaded support 
- Better PyObject reference counting with ref_t and newref_t helper classes
- Improved the pywraps/deployment script
- Added IDAViewWrapper class and example
- Added idc.GetDisasmEx()
- Added idc.AddSegEx()
- Added idc.GetLocalTinfo()
- Added idc.ApplyType()
- Updated type information implementation
- Introduced the idaapi.require() - see http://www.hexblog.com/?p=749
- set REMOVE_CWD_SYS_PATH=1 by default in python.cfg (remove current directory from the import search path).

Various bugfixes:
- fixed various memory leaks
- asklong/askaddr/asksel (and corresponding idc.py functions) were returning results truncated to 32 bits in IDA64
- fix wrong documentation for idc.SizeOf
- GetFloat/GetDouble functions did not take into account endianness of the processor
- idaapi.NO_PROCESS was not defined, and was causing GetProcessPid() to fail
- idc.py: insert escape characters to string parameter when call Eval()
- idc.SaveFile/savefile were always overwriting an existing file instead of writing only the new data
- PluginForm.Close() wasn't passing its arguments to the delegate function, resulting in an error.

------------------------------------------------------
IDAPython - Python plugin for Interactive Disassembler
------------------------------------------------------

What is IDAPython?
------------------

IDAPython is an IDA plugin which makes it possible to write scripts
for IDA in the Python programming language. IDAPython provides full
access to both the IDA API and any installed Python module.

Check the scripts in the examples directory to get an quick glimpse.


Availability
------------

Latest stable versions of IDAPython are available from
  http://code.google.com/p/idapython/downloads/list

Development builds are available from
  http://code.google.com/p/idapython/


Resources
---------

The full function cross-reference is readable online at
  http://www.hex-rays.com/idapro/idapython_docs/

Bugs and enhancement requests should be submitted to
  http://code.google.com/p/idapython/issues/list

Mailing list for the project is hosted by Google Groups at
  http://groups.google.com/group/idapython


Installation from binaries
--------------------------

1. Install 2.6 or 2.7 from http://www.python.org/
2. Copy the whole "python" directory to %IDADIR%
3. Copy the contents of the "plugins" directory to the %IDADIR%\plugins\
4. Copy "python.cfg" to %IDADIR%\cfg

Usage
-----

 - Run script: File / Script file (Alt-F7)
 - Execute Python statement(s) (Ctrl-F3)
 - Run previously executed script again: View / Recent Scripts (Alt+F9)


* Batch mode execution:

Start IDA with the following command line options:

 -A -OIDAPython:yourscript.py file_to_work_on
or
-Syourscript.py
or
-S"yourscript.py arg1 arg2 arg3"

(Please see http://www.hexblog.com/?p=128)

If you want fully unattended execution mode, make sure your script
exits with a qexit() call.

By default scripts run after the database is opened. Extended option
format is:

  -OIDAPython:[N;]script.py

Where N can be:
  0: run script after opening database (default)
  1: run script when UI is ready
  2: run script immediately on plugin load (shortly after IDA starts and before processor modules and loaders)

* User init file

You can place your custom settings to a file called 'idapythonrc.py'
that should be placed to

${HOME}/.idapro/

or

%AppData%\Hex-Rays\IDA Pro

The user init file is read and executed at the end of the init process.

Please note that IDAPython can be configured with "python.cfg" file.

* Invoking Python from IDC

The IDAPython plugin exposes a new IDC function "RunPythonStatement(string idc_code)" that allows execution
of Python code from IDC

* Invoking IDC from Python

It is possible to use the idc.Eval() to evaluate IDC expressions from Python

* Making Python the default language

By default, IDA will use IDC to evaluate expressions. It is possible to change the default language to use
Python instead of IDC.

In order to do that, please use the following IDC code:

RunPlugin("python", 3)

To disable Python language and revert back to IDC:
RunPlugin("python", 4)
