Hi, I'm trying to create a python script that will disassemble a binary (a Windows exe to be precise) and analyze its code.
I need the ability to take a certain buffer, and extract some sort of struct containing information about the instructions in it.
I've worked with libdisasm in C before, and I found it's interface quite intuitive and comfortable.
The problem is, its Python interface is available only through SWIG, and I can't get it to compile properly under Windows.
At the availability aspect, diStorm provides a nice out-of-the-box interface, but it provides only the Mnemonic of each instruction, and not a binary struct with enumerations defining instruction type and what not.
This is quite uncomfortable for my purpose, and will require a lot of what I see as spent time wrapping the interface to make it fit my needs.
I've also looked at BeaEngine, which does in fact provide the output I need, a struct with binary info concerning each instruction, but its interface is really odd and counter-intuitive, and it crashes pretty much instantly when provided with wrong arguments.
The CTypes sort of ultimate-death-to-your-python crashes.
So, I'd be happy to hear about other solutions, which are a little less time consuming than messing around with djgcc or mingw to make SWIGed libdisasm, or writing an OOP wrapper for diStorm.
If anyone has some guidance as to how to compile SWIGed libdisasm, or better yet, a compiled binary (pyd or dll+py), I'd love to hear/have it. :)
Thanks ahead.
