Programming :: Convert An Arbitrary Binary File Into A Executable File?

Feb 18, 2010

In a project I'm working on with a few other people, I got the task of writing an assembler. The last thing I do is convert the commands into a binary representation, and jam it into a file. Now one of my teammates said he'd like to be able to "reference" the code within another program. He said he'd be able to do this if the file I output is a Linux object file. I'm thinking it'd also work as an executable. Anyway, he said he'd like to be able to grab the file and reference the binary by address. I'm still fuzzy on this, and if you're confused with what I said here, please tell me so I can ask him for better details.Anyway, I'm aware that gcc can compile files to ".o", but that's only for C/C++, and my file is just binary. I'm also aware of "ld", but I haven't seen any use of it to help me. I'm happy to hear suggestions as to what I can do. If anything, I think I'll implement a few functions to grab the bits and hand them to him in an array or something.

Programming :: 'nm' Lists All Symbols - Including Static Library Symbols?

Apr 5, 2010

By issuing the 'nm' command on shared library (internally using one static library), the functions exposed by static library is also being listed, Which allows to use internal functions which is of course not intended. I have one static library having A(), B() and C() functions. Creating one shared library which has function XYS() that is using A() and B() functions from Static library. While doing 'nm' on shared library, all the static library function are being listed.

Static Lib:

General :: Libraries - Binary Executable Properties : Ldd Alternative?

Mar 23, 2011

The Linux ldd command can show the dynamic libraries used by an executable. It's a bash script.But it seems to be fragile, and does not work on some binaries. Is there an alternative tool? In my specific example, I can use:

% file datab2txt

datab2txt: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, for GNU/Linux 2.4.0, not stripped

but ldd fails with:

% ldd -v datab2txt

not a dynamic executable

Programming :: Search And Replace In A Binary File?

Aug 11, 2010

i need to change a binary file, let's say to find and replace username:

find string: "/home/name/bla-bla-bla/ "
new string: "/home/anewname/bla-bla-bla/ "

i can do it, for example, in emacs (hexl-mode), but interesting in writing a script instead. it will be much more better for me if i could do it automatically. is there an analog of: sed 's/string1/string2/g' ? P.S. the best way is to recompile the binary files i have, but there are no sources available.

Programming :: Unable To Disassemble A Binary File?

Apr 15, 2011

I want to be able to disassemble a binary file, modify the assembly source, then assemble the modified assembly source back into a modified binary file. Purpose for this is pretty much just to play around with the Crackmes (www.crackmes.de) game.

Now, disassembly is easy, there are several tools that do it, including the standard objdump with the -d argument. However, how would you assemble an assembly source file created with objdump -d? GCC for sure doesn't want to assemble it in that format. What program, script, or arguments to GCC (none that I can think of) can be used to accomplish this? If someone also has some good tips for tools in general for Crackmes beyond what is standard in GNU/Linux I'd love to hear about it.

Programming :: Reading A Binary File Which Is In Hexadecimal

Jan 9, 2011

I have a binary file, which I need to process using my C++ application. Only thing I know is first chunk of the file is long, second chunk is int, third chunk is char etc... The binary file actually contains something like below. (which is represented in hex base).

D7 07 00 00 00 00 00 00 37 18 00 00 DE 07 ............ so on.....

I need to procees the file in the following way.

* I know the first data segment in my file is long. So it takes 4 bytes.
* so I need to read the first four bytes. That is D7 07 00 00.
* Then I need to reverse this as 00 00 07 D7.
* Finally I need to get the decimal value of above hexa decimal line. ( 00 00 07 D7)
* i.e. 00 00 07 D7 (in hex) = 7D7 (in hex- after removing leading 0 s) = 2007 (in decimal)

Like wise I need to process the whole file.

Programming :: Calling Gcc From Executable File / (makefile)

Oct 4, 2010

I am trying to use a software package written in ANSI C. It has a makefile which has to be executed first.

As soon as I execute it I get messages like: line i: command not found.

Commands for which I am getting errors :

CC = /usr/bin/gcc
GCCFLAGS = -c -Wall
ROOTDIR = .

My gcc compiler is located in the above directory only. In ROOTDIR also I tried giving the path in which all the required files & folders are present but still I get the command not found error in all the lines.

Programming :: Copying A Binary Image File To The Framebuffer?

Jul 14, 2010

I'm running Linux version 2.6.33.4 on an ARM9 and can successfully copy directly into the framebuffer using the command:

Code:
cat /usr/myfile.bin >/dev/fb0

I converted myfile.bin from a 640 x 480 x 24 bmp.

What I'd like to do is to have the ability to dump .bin image files directly into the framebuffer from a C program without shelling out to a cat command.

Programming :: Make A Binary Tree From An External File?

Dec 7, 2010

My assessment is making a tree from a text file as follows: -reading a file line by line

-making a binary tree from it
- traverse by level the binary tree
- posting the traversal result to the same file without overwriting the text file- it is required to be append to the bottom of the text file (i have to do this in 4 languages: c#,PHP from Xampp,java, python)

i read the file with this script in java:
public class FileToStringArray {
privateString strLine;
privateString[] stringArray;
privateFileInputStream in;

Programming :: What Is The Terminology Called Of A Binary Using A File That Is Not Part Of It's Self

Feb 14, 2011

What is the Terminology called of a Binary using a file that is not part of it's self? An example would be when a browser uses a HTML file for it's interface. The binaries code has to know how to find it and so on. I imagine that the applications binary uses a system call and that another application takes over.

Programming :: CVS Client That Comes As A Single Executable File Or Web Interface?

My senior project team at Penn State is starting to write our code, and I was looking for a revision control system to manage it. I was going to use CVS, but I can't find a client that doesn't have to install something on the local machine(we dont have administrative permissions on school computers). Is there a CVS(or Subversion or anything else) client that comes as a single executable file or web interface?

Programming :: Reading A Binary File (Ignoring Null Terminator)

Jan 12, 2011

I need to read a binary file using my C++ application. That binary file may contain arbitary characters and it also contains 0 at some places. I need to read the file without considering null terminating character. (i.e. considering 0 as a normal byte and not as the end of the string)Can some one suggest me a method to read the buffer while ignoring the null terminated character.

Programming :: Saving A PPM File - Binary Representation Of Unsigned Chars On The Harddrive

Apr 7, 2010

I am accessing a firewire camera using the libdc1394 library and saving the image as a PPM file, using the code below:

[Code].....

My question is whether the above code is portable. I presume it is, since the result is a binary PPM file which should be capable of being read across multiple computers with different architectures and different operating systems. But at the same time, all that the above code is doing is just saving the binary representation of unsigned chars on the harddrive, and there does not seem to be any reason why the binary representations of the unsigned chars will be identical across multiple computers.

Programming :: Write A Script That Makes File Executable And Writes A Message That It Has Been Done?

Mar 10, 2010

like my alias a retired person, and Its never to late to learn something½ve just installed Ubuntu and found a tutorial online about bash-script.Manage some, but I cant to this one:[Write a script that makes file executable and writes a message that it has been done.If I run the command > <scriptName> <fileName> , then the file fileName should be executable and then it should indicate that fileName have been executable.]

Ive read man pages up-n-down and search the web, and I think I should let the script use chmod and ls -l, but I cant get the hole picture here. Actually I have nothing to show up, so I hope someone could help me with some ideas or a soloution - just to the how it should look.This is my first post, ever, at a forum like this, so please be nice if I didnt follow any rules here, I dont know if you even will answer this post, but at least give me some clues, a skeleton-code ti be based on

Ubuntu :: Cannot Open An Executable File Because Of Executable Bit?

Jun 20, 2010

I am running into a snag on .exe files in Lucid. I have Wine installed, but I can not open the file as it is blocked from executing with a window popping up telling me that this file was blocked due to security reasons. I go into the files properties and try to change the permission but that does not help. Is there a way to get around this? Possibly in the terminal as root?

I wanted to know how can I cross compile SMS SERVER TOOL for an embedded computer and make just one binary file for it or how can I change all of its default files places like its demon and object file and gather all of them to one directory to execute and use and run.let me explain it better for you : I have an embedded computer with Linux OS that its file system is read only and I can not add any file to /usr /lib and ..... and I can just mount a SD memory card to it and copy all of my programs to it and run them from there as you understand I have two choices to choose, first make one big binary file for each program that I am doing it now and it is not a suitable solution and the second is finding the way to change default place of shared object file of my program.now you tell me what can I do to solving this problem.

Programming :: GDB (No Debugging Symbols Found)

Oct 19, 2010

I'm running gdb across a network using gdb server. I've got it up and running. However I can't see any source or variables for my code (in ddd /gdb). At start up gdb says (no debugging symbols found). I've got a g in my make file,
CPFLAGS = -Wall -Os -g -pedantic

I've tried loading symbols in using "symbol-file testarm", this sort of works in that I can view symbols but not names, e.g. if I ask dd to show x y and z, rather than
x = 10
y = 20
x = 30

It says:
display
10/20/30

Also ddd does not show anything in the source window, is there a way I can get it to show this? I think it's because I've started ddd with ddd arm-linux-gdb, as I'm calling a crosscompiler gdb. So can I tell ddd to point to the correct folders? What commands I need to set in gdb/ddd to view variable names (it's hard to keep track when it bunches them all together) and how to view my source code.

Programming :: Parser Symbols With Different Types

Nov 27, 2010

I decided to try making a programming language again after my last unsuccessful attempt, so now I figured how to write a good AST and it works great when the nodes are hard-coded into a test program. But to make a language out of it, I need a parser to build the tree according to an input file. I ran into a problem here:

YACC input file:
Code:
%{
#include "nodes/allnodes.h"
#include "Node.h"
int vars[26];
%}

%token SEMICOLON INTEGER VARIABLE IF WHILE DO OPAREN CPAREN OBRACE CBRACE
%right ASSIGN
%left NE
%left PLUS MINUS
%left TIMES DIVIDE
%% .....

As you might see, each nonterminal creates a Node* object and uses it as its value. The problem is that the literal tokens, however, don't return Node*'s and I don't know what to do. I would like to be able to convert literal tokens to nodes in the Lex file (which would avoid the problem), but the problem is with the assignment operator, which takes a Node* for the right-hand side and a variable name (not a Variable Node, because they just evaluate the the variable's value and you can't change the variable with them) for the left hand side.

Programming :: Difference Between Various Symbols Of Kernel

Aug 22, 2010

I was going through some exercise given in my school. I have read the C book but I am not able to understand some part. That is static variable. What exactly is a static variable and what does it do? I saw in Linux Kernel Programming external and exported are also some thing. I am not getting the difference between static,EXPORT_SYMBOL,external variable types. If I make a kernel module then how will I make sure that my variable is visible to the kernel. Is this what it is all talking about? I have checked this page [URL].
