  • Method Details

    • getElement

      public GoType getElement() throws IOException
      Returns a reference to the element's type.
      Returns:
      reference to the element's type
      Throws:
      IOException - if error reading data

    • recoverDataType

      public DataType recoverDataType(GoTypeManager goTypes) throws IOException
      Description copied from class: GoType
      Converts a golang RTTI type structure into a Ghidra data type.

      This default implementation just creates an opaque blob of the appropriate size

      Overrides:
      recoverDataType in class GoType
      Parameters:
      goTypes - GoTypeManager
      Returns:
      DataType that represents the golang type
      Throws:
      IOException - if error getting name of the type

    • discoverGoTypes

      public boolean discoverGoTypes(Set<Long> discoveredTypes) throws IOException
      Description copied from class: GoType
      Iterates this type, and any types this type refers to, while registering the types with the GoRttiMapper context.

      This method should be overloaded by derived type classes to add any additional types referenced by the derived type.

      Overrides:
      discoverGoTypes in class GoType
      Parameters:
      discoveredTypes - set of already iterated types
      Returns:
      boolean boolean flag, if false the type has already been discovered, if true the type was encountered for the first time
      Throws:
      IOException - if error reading type info

    • getPackagePathString

      public String getPackagePathString()
      Description copied from class: GoType
      Returns the package path of this type.
      Overrides:
      getPackagePathString in class GoType
      Returns:
      package path of this type

    • getStructureNamespace

      public String getStructureNamespace() throws IOException
      Description copied from interface: StructureMarkup
      Returns the namespace that any labels should be placed in.
      Specified by:
      getStructureNamespace in interface StructureMarkup<GoType>
      Overrides:
      getStructureNamespace in class GoType
      Returns:
      name of namespace to place the label for this structure mapped type, or null
      Throws:
      IOException - if error generating namespace name

    • getTypeDeclString

      protected String getTypeDeclString() throws IOException
      Description copied from class: GoType
      Returns a descriptive string that defines the declaration of this type.

      This method should be overloaded by more specific types.

      Overrides:
      getTypeDeclString in class GoType
      Returns:
      descriptive string
      Throws:
      IOException - if error reading data

    • isValid

      public boolean isValid()
      Specified by:
      isValid in interface StructureVerifier
      Overrides:
      isValid in class GoType
