IDA Plugin Writing Tutorial v1.1

Author: stevem

# Views: 6601

It's long overdue, but I'll be updating the IDA Plugin Writing Tutorial over the next few weeks, bringing it up to date for IDA Pro 5.4.

I'm still scoping out the amount of work required, but I suspect that there may be only minor changes here and there, plus some new functionality worth covering.

If there is anything in particular that people would like to see covered in the tutorial that was missing or lacked detail in the first version, please let me know.

Some stuff about how to draw custom graphs using IDA API would be great :)

UI programing. And I expect to see tutorials about writing custom loaderd and custom processors ( those cann't be called IDA plugins,but I wanna to read something about that).

Don't know about expanding scope to cover loaders and processors, but I'll have a look at the graphing and see how I go.

In idasdk you can find 3 examples for changing the graphs. Although the last one is empty.

idasdk/plugins/ugraph:
It demonstrates how to create a graph viewer with an aribtrary graph.

idasdk/plugins/ugraph2:
It demonstrates how to modify ida graphs on the fly.
This plugin combines sequential nodes into one.
It is fully automatic.

idasdk/plugins/ugraph3:
It demonstrates how to generate ida graphs for arbitrary ranges.

but in my version of the sdk (just downloaded a few days ago) ugraph3 doesn't look it does much... but I may be wrong

thanks Steve for your tutorial it's awesome, superb job! I just can't wait to read v1.1;)

Apologies for the delay.. should be ready in a couple of days. There hasn't been much to cover in this new tutorial, you can expect a few minor updates and an additional plug-in example. Graphs will have to wait until v1.2 ;)
