Class AddressXML

java.lang.Object
ghidra.program.model.pcode.AddressXML

public class AddressXML extends Object
Utility class for the myriad ways of marshaling/unmarshaling an address and an optional size, to/from XML for the various configuration files. An object of the class itself is the most general form, where the specified address - MAY have an associated size given in bytes - MAY be in the JOIN address space, with physical pieces making up the logical value explicitly provided. The static buildXML methods write out an \ tag given component elements without allocating an object. The static readXML methods read XML tags (presented in different forms) and returns an Address object. The static appendAttributes methods write out attributes of an address to an arbitrary XML tag. The static restoreXML methods read an \ tag and produce a general AddressXML object.

    • AddressXML

      public AddressXML(AddressSpace spc, long off, int sz, Varnode[] pieces)
      Construct a logical memory range, representing multiple ranges pieced together. The logical range is assigned an address in the JOIN address space. The physical pieces making up the logical range are passed in as a sequence of Varnodes representing, in order, the most significant through the least significant portions of the value.
      Parameters:
      spc - is the JOIN address space (must have a type of AddressSpace.TYPE_JOIN)
      off - is the offset of the logical value within the JOIN space
      sz - is the number of bytes in the logical value
      pieces - is the array of 1 or more physical pieces

      public void encode(Encoder encoder) throws IOException
      Encode this sized address as an \ element to the stream
      Parameters:
      encoder - is the stream encoder

    • restoreXml

      public static AddressXML restoreXml(XmlElement el, CompilerSpec cspec) throws XmlParseException
      Restore an Address (as an AddressSpace and an offset) and an optional size from XML tag. The tag can have any name, but it must either have: - A "name" attribute, indicating a register name OR - A "space" and "offset" attribute, indicating the address space and offset If a register name is given, size is obtained from the register. If an offset is given, the size can optionally be specified using a "size" attribute. If not explicitly described, the size is set to zero. This method supports the "join" address space attached to the compiler specification
      Parameters:
      el - is the XML tag
      cspec - is the compiler spec for looking up registers
      Returns:
      an AddressXML object containing the recovered space,offset,size
      Throws:
      XmlParseException - for problems parsing
    • restoreXml

      public static AddressXML restoreXml(XmlElement el, Language language) throws XmlParseException
      Restore an Address (as an AddressSpace and an offset) and an optional size from XML tag. The tag can have any name, but it must either have: - A "name" attribute, indicating a register name OR - A "space" and "offset" attribute, indicating the address space and offset If a register name is given, size is obtained from the register. If an offset is given, the size can optionally be specified using a "size" attribute. If not explicitly described, the size is set to zero.
      Parameters:
      el - is the XML tag
      language - is the processor language for looking up registers and address spaces
      Returns:
      an AddressXML object containing the recovered space,offset,size

      Parameters:
      el - is the XML element
      cspec - is a compiler spec to resolve address spaces and registers
      Returns:
      an AddressXML object representing the range
