    • MachHeader

      public MachHeader(ByteProvider provider) throws IOException, MachException
      Creates a new MachHeader. Assumes the MachHeader starts at index 0 in the ByteProvider.
      Parameters:
      provider - the ByteProvider
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs while reading from the ByteProvider
      MachException - if an invalid MachHeader is detected

    • MachHeader

      public MachHeader(ByteProvider provider, long machHeaderStartIndexInProvider) throws IOException, MachException
      Creates a new MachHeader. Assumes the MachHeader starts at index machHeaderStartIndexInProvider in the ByteProvider.
      Parameters:
      provider - the ByteProvider
      machHeaderStartIndexInProvider - the index into the ByteProvider where the MachHeader begins
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs while reading from the ByteProvider
      MachException - if an invalid MachHeader is detected

    • MachHeader

      public MachHeader(ByteProvider provider, long machHeaderStartIndexInProvider, boolean isRemainingMachoRelativeToStartIndex) throws IOException, MachException
      Creatse a new MachHeader. Assumes the MachHeader starts at index machHeaderStartIndexInProvider in the ByteProvider.
      Parameters:
      provider - the ByteProvider
      machHeaderStartIndexInProvider - the index into the ByteProvider where the MachHeader begins.
      isRemainingMachoRelativeToStartIndex - true if the rest of the macho uses relative indexin (this is common in UBI and kernel cache files); otherwise, false if the rest of the file uses absolute indexing from 0 (this is common in DYLD cache files)
      Throws:
      IOException - if an I/O error occurs while reading from the ByteProvider
      MachException - if an invalid MachHeader is detected

    • parseAndCheck

      public boolean parseAndCheck(int loadCommandType) throws IOException
      Parses only this MachHeader's LoadCommands to check to see if one of the given type exists
      Parameters:
      loadCommandType - The type of LoadCommand to check for
      Returns:
      True if this MachHeader contains the given LoadCommand type
      Throws:
      IOException - If there was an IO-related error

    • toDataType

      public DataType toDataType() throws DuplicateNameException, IOException
      Description copied from interface: StructConverter
      Returns a structure datatype representing the contents of the implementor of this interface.

      For example, given: 

       class A {
     int foo;
     double bar;
 }

      The return value should be a structure data type with two data type components; an INT and a DOUBLE. The structure should contain field names and, if possible, field comments.

      Specified by:
      toDataType in interface StructConverter
      Returns:
      returns a structure datatype representing the implementor of this interface
      Throws:
      DuplicateNameException - when a datatype of the same name already exists
      IOException

      Returns:
      the start index that should be used for calculating offsets

    • getStartIndexInProvider

      public long getStartIndexInProvider()
      Returns the offset of the MachHeader in the ByteProvider
      Returns:
