Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
Collection<LoadSpec>	findSupportedLoadSpecs(ByteProvider provider)	If this Loader supports loading the given ByteProvider, this methods returns a Collection of all supported LoadSpecs that contain discovered load specification information that this Loader will need to load.
List<Option>	getDefaultOptions(ByteProvider provider, LoadSpec loadSpec, DomainObject domainObject, boolean loadIntoProgram)	Gets the default Loader options.

Method Details

getTier

public LoaderTier getTier()

Description copied from interface: Loader

For ordering purposes; lower tier numbers are more important (and listed first).

Specified by:

getTier in interface Loader

Returns:

the tier of the loader

getTierPriority

public int getTierPriority()

Description copied from interface: Loader

For ordering purposes; lower numbers are more important (and listed first, within its tier).

Specified by:

getTierPriority in interface Loader

Returns:

the ordering of the loader within its tier

validateOptions

public String validateOptions(ByteProvider provider,
 LoadSpec loadSpec,
 List<Option> options,
 Program program)

Description copied from interface: Loader

Validates the Loader's options and returns null if all options are valid; otherwise, an error message describing the problem is returned.

Specified by:

validateOptions in interface Loader

Parameters:

provider - The bytes of the thing being loaded.

loadSpec - The proposed LoadSpec.

options - The list of Options to validate.

program - existing program if the loader is adding to an existing program. If it is a fresh import, then this will be null.

Returns:

null if all Options are valid; otherwise, an error message describing the problem is returned.

getDefaultOptions

public List<Option> getDefaultOptions(ByteProvider provider,
 LoadSpec loadSpec,
 DomainObject domainObject,
 boolean loadIntoProgram)

Description copied from interface: Loader

Gets the default Loader options.

Specified by:

getDefaultOptions in interface Loader

Parameters:

provider - The bytes of the thing being loaded.

loadSpec - The LoadSpec.

domainObject - The DomainObject being loaded.

loadIntoProgram - True if the load is adding to an existing DomainObject; otherwise, false.

Returns:

A list of the Loader's default options.

load

public LoadResults<? extends DomainObject> load(ByteProvider provider,
 String programName,
 Project project,
 String projectFolderPath,
 LoadSpec loadSpec,
 List<Option> options,
 MessageLog messageLog,
 Object consumer,
 TaskMonitor monitor)
                                         throws IOException,
CancelledException,
VersionException

Description copied from interface: Loader

Loads bytes in a particular format as a new Loaded DomainObject. Multiple DomainObjects may end up getting created, depending on the nature of the format. The Loaded DomainObjects are bundled together in a LoadResults object which provides convenience methods to operate on the entire group of Loaded DomainObjects.

Note that when the load completes, the returned Loaded DomainObjects are not saved to a project. That is the responsibility of the caller (see LoadResults.save(Project, Object, MessageLog, TaskMonitor)).

It is also the responsibility of the caller to release the returned Loaded DomainObjects with LoadResults.release(Object) when they are no longer needed.

Specified by:

load in interface Loader

Parameters:

provider - The bytes to load.

programName - A suggested name for the primary Loaded DomainObject. This is just a suggestion, and a Loader implementation reserves the right to change it. The LoadResults should be queried for their true names using Loaded.getName().

project - The Project. Loaders can use this to take advantage of existing DomainFolders and DomainFiles to do custom behaviors such as loading libraries. Could be null if there is no project.

projectFolderPath - A suggested project folder path for the Loaded DomainObjects. This is just a suggestion, and a Loader implementation reserves the right to change it for each Loaded result. The LoadResults should be queried for their true project folder paths using Loaded.getProjectFolderPath().

loadSpec - The LoadSpec to use during load.

options - The load options.

messageLog - The message log.

consumer - A consumer object for generated DomainObjects.

monitor - A task monitor.

Returns:

The LoadResults which contains one or more Loaded DomainObjects (created but not saved).

Throws:

IOException - if there was an IO-related problem loading.

CancelledException - if the user cancelled the load.

VersionException - if the load process tried to open an existing DomainFile which was created with a newer or unsupported version of Ghidra

loadInto

public void loadInto(ByteProvider provider,
 LoadSpec loadSpec,
 List<Option> options,
 MessageLog messageLog,
 Program program,
 TaskMonitor monitor)
              throws IOException,
LoadException,
CancelledException

Description copied from interface: Loader

Loads bytes into the specified Program. This method will not create any new Programs. It is only for adding to an existing Program.

Specified by:

loadInto in interface Loader

Parameters:

provider - The bytes to load into the Program.

loadSpec - The LoadSpec to use during load.

options - The load options.

messageLog - The message log.

program - The Program to load into.

monitor - A cancelable task monitor.

Throws:

IOException - if there was an IO-related problem loading.

LoadException - if the load failed in an expected way.

CancelledException - if the user cancelled the load.

findSupportedLoadSpecs

public Collection<LoadSpec> findSupportedLoadSpecs(ByteProvider provider)
                                            throws IOException

Description copied from interface: Loader

If this Loader supports loading the given ByteProvider, this methods returns a Collection of all supported LoadSpecs that contain discovered load specification information that this Loader will need to load. If this Loader cannot support loading the given ByteProvider, an empty Collection is returned.

Specified by:

findSupportedLoadSpecs in interface Loader

Parameters:

provider - The bytes being loaded.

Returns:

A Collection of LoadSpecs that this Loader supports loading, or an empty Collection if this Loader doesn't support loading the given ByteProvider.

Throws:

IOException - if there was an IO-related issue finding the LoadSpecs.

getPreferredFileName

public String getPreferredFileName(ByteProvider provider)

Description copied from interface: Loader

The preferred file name to use when loading.

The default behavior of this method is to return the (cleaned up) name of the given ByteProvider.

NOTE: This method may get called frequently, so only parse the given ByteProvider if absolutely necessary.

Specified by:

getPreferredFileName in interface Loader

Parameters:

provider - The bytes to load.

Returns:

The preferred file name to use when loading.

getName

public String getName()

Description copied from interface: Loader

Gets the Loader's name, which is used both for display purposes, and to identify the Loader in the opinion files.

Specified by:

getName in interface Loader

Returns:

The Loader's name.
