skochinsky@gmail.com 1258fab948 IDAPython 1.5.3
- IDA Pro 6.2 support
- added set_idc_func_ex(): it is now possible to add new IDC functions using Python
- added visit_patched_bytes() (see ex_patch.py)
- added support for the multiline text input control in the Form class
- added support for the editable/readonly dropdown list control in the Form class
- added execute_sync() to register a function call into the UI message queue
- added execute_ui_requests() / check ex_uirequests.py
- added add_hotkey() / del_hotkey() to bind Python methods to hotkeys
- added register_timer()/unregister_timer(). Check ex_timer.py
- added the IDC (Arrays) netnode manipulation layer into idc.py
- added idautils.Structs() and StructMembers() generator functions
- removed the "Run Python Statement" menu item. IDA now has a unified dialog. 
  Use RunPlugin("python", 0) to invoke it manually.
- better error messages for script plugins, loaders and processor modules
- bugfix: Dbg_Hooks.dbg_run_to() was receiving wrong input
- bugfix: A few Enum related functions were not properly working in idc.py
- bugfix: GetIdaDirectory() and GetProcessName() were broken in idc.py
- bugfix: idaapi.get_item_head() / idc.ItemHead() were not working

Building From Source
--------------------
REQUIREMENTS
------------
[Tested versions are in brackets]
- IDA and IDA SDK [> 5.6]
http://www.hex-rays.com/idapro/
- Python [2.5.1, 2.6.1, 2.7]
http://www.python.org/
- Simplified Wrapper Interface Generator (SWIG) [2.0]
http://www.swig.org/

http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/ or
http://www.cygwin.com/
- GCC on Linux and Mac OS X [4.0.1, 4.1.3]
Comes with your distribution
- Microsoft Visual C on Windows [Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition]
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/
BUILDING
--------
Make sure all the needed tools (compiler, swig) are on the PATH.
1. Unpack the IDAPython source and IDA SDK into the following
directory structure:
swigsdk-versions/x.y/ - A supported version of the IDA SDK
idapython/ - IDAPython source code
2. On Mac OS X copy libida.dylib from the IDA install directory to
swigsdk-versions/x.y/lib/x86_mac_gcc_32/
and libida64.dylib to
swigsdk-versions/x.y/lib/x86_mac_gcc_64/
3. Build the plugin
python build.py
It is possible to build the plugin for different Python versions by
running build.py with the corresponding Python binary.
Run 'build.py --help' for more information.
4. Install the components as described in README.txt
See build.py for build details and possible tweaks.
On 64 bits distributions, you may need to compile Python to generate a 32bit
version of the interpreter:
1. tar xvf Python-2.6.6.tar.bz2
2. cd Python-2.6.6
3. CC="gcc -m32" CXX="c++ -m32" ./configure --prefix=/path/to/py32 --enable-shared
4. make
5. make install
6. cd /path/to/py32/lib
7. ln -s libpython2.6.so.1.0 libpython2.6.so.1
8. PYTHONHOME=/path/to/py32 LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/py32/lib idaq
