ida_kernwin

Defines the interface between the kernel and the UI.

It contains: * the UI dispatcher notification codes (ui_notification_t) * convenience functions for UI services * structures which hold information about the lines (disassembly, structures, enums) generated by the kernel * functions to interact with the user (dialog boxes) * some string and conversion functions.

`CHCOL_FNAME`	function name. If a chooser column has this flag set and implements chooser_base_t::get_ea(), rows background colors will be automatically set to match the navigator's "Library function", "Lumina function" and "External symbol" colors
`CHCOL_FORMAT`	column format mask
`CHCOL_DEFHIDDEN`	column should be hidden by default
`CHCOL_DRAGHINT`	the column number that will be used to build hints for the dragging undo label. This should be provided for at most one column for any given chooser.

ida_kernwin.register_action(desc: action_desc_t) → bool

Create a new action (ui_register_action). After an action has been created, it is possible to attach it to menu items (attach_action_to_menu()), or to popup menus (attach_action_to_popup()). Because the actions will need to call the handler’s activate() and update() methods at any time, you shouldn’t build your action handler on the stack. Please see the SDK’s “ht_view” plugin for an example how to register actions.

Parameters:: desc – action to register
Returns:: success

ida_kernwin.get_registered_actions() → List[str]

Get a list with the names of all currently-registered actions.

ida_kernwin.attach_dynamic_action_to_popup(unused, popup_handle, desc, popuppath=None, flags=0)

Create & insert an action into the widget’s popup menu (::ui_attach_dynamic_action_to_popup). Note: The action description in the ‘desc’ parameter is modified by

this call so you should prepare a new description for each call.

For example:: desc = ida_kernwin.action_desc_t(None, ‘Dynamic popup action’, Handler()) ida_kernwin.attach_dynamic_action_to_popup(form, popup, desc)

Parameters:

unused – deprecated; should be None
popup_handle – target popup
desc – action description of type action_desc_t
popuppath – can be None
flags – a combination of SETMENU_ constants

Returns:

success

class ida_kernwin.disasm_line_t(*args)

Bases: object

ida_kernwin.py_chooser_base_t_get_row(chobj: chooser_base_t, n: size_t) → PyObject *

ida_kernwin.gen_disasm_text(text: disasm_text_t, ea1: ida_idaapi.ea_t, ea2: ida_idaapi.ea_t, truncate_lines: bool) → None

Generate disassembly text for a range.

Parameters:

text – result
ea1 – start address
ea2 – end address
truncate_lines – (on idainfo::margin)

ida_kernwin.set_nav_colorizer(callback)

Set a new colorizer for the navigation band.

The ‘callback’ is a function of 2 arguments:

ea (the EA to colorize for)
nbytes (the number of bytes at that EA)

and must return a ‘long’ value.

The previous colorizer is returned, allowing the new ‘callback’ to use ‘call_nav_colorizer’ with it.

Note that the previous colorizer is returned only the first time set_nav_colorizer() is called: due to the way the colorizers API is defined in C, it is impossible to chain more than 2 colorizers in IDAPython: the original, IDA-provided colorizer, and a user-provided one.

Example: colorizer inverting the color provided by the IDA colorizer:

def my_colorizer(ea, nbytes):: global ida_colorizer orig = ida_kernwin.call_nav_colorizer(ida_colorizer, ea, nbytes) return long(~orig)

ida_colorizer = ida_kernwin.set_nav_colorizer(my_colorizer)

Parameters:: callback – the new colorizer

ida_kernwin.call_nav_colorizer(colorizer, ea: ida_idaapi.ea_t, nbytes: int)

To be used with the IDA-provided colorizer, that is returned as result of the first call to set_nav_colorizer().

Parameters:

colorizer – the Python colorizer to call
ea – the address to colorize
nbytes – the size of the range to colorize

ida_kernwin.msg_get_lines(count: int = -1) → PyObject *

Retrieve the last ‘count’ lines from the output window, in reverse order (from most recent, to least recent)

Parameters:: count – The number of lines to retrieve. -1 means: all

ida_kernwin.TWidget__from_ptrval__(ptrval: size_t) → TWidget *

ida_kernwin.MAX_SPACES_ADDED

ida_kernwin.add_spaces(s: str, len: size_t) → str

Add space characters to the colored string so that its length will be at least ‘len’ characters. Don’t trim the string if it is longer than ‘len’.

Parameters:: len – the desired length of the string
Returns:: pointer to the end of input string

ida_kernwin.show_wait_box(message: str) → None

Display a dialog box with “Please wait…”. The behavior of the dialog box can be configured with well-known tokens, that should be placed at the start of the format string:

“NODELAYn”: the dialog will show immediately, instead of appearing after usual grace threshold “HIDECANCELn”: the cancel button won’t be added to the dialog box and user_cancelled() will always return false (but can be called to refresh UI) Using “HIDECANCEL” implies “NODELAY”

Plugins must call hide_wait_box() to close the dialog box, otherwise the user interface will remain disabled.

Note that, if the wait dialog is already visible, show_wait_box() will 1) push the currently-displayed text on a stack 2) display the new text

Then, when hide_wait_box() is called, if that stack isn’t empty its top label will be popped and restored in the wait dialog. This implies that a plugin should call hide_wait_box() exactly as many times as it called show_wait_box(), or the wait dialog might remain visible and block the UI. Also, in case the plugin knows the wait dialog is currently displayed, alternatively it can call replace_wait_box(), to replace the text of the dialog without pushing the currently-displayed text on the stack.

ida_kernwin.hide_wait_box() → None: Hide the “Please wait dialog box”.

lnnum: int: Number of line within the current object.

touval(ud: void *) → int

Map the location to a number. This mapping is used to draw the vertical scrollbar.

Parameters:: ud – pointer to user-defined context data. Is supplied by linearray_t

clone() → place_t *

Clone the location.

Returns:: a pointer to a copy of the current location in dynamic memory

copyfrom(_from: place_t) → None: Copy the specified location object to the current object.

makeplace(ud: void *, x: int, lnnum: int) → place_t *

Map a number to a location. When the user clicks on the scrollbar and drags it, we need to determine the location corresponding to the new scrollbar position. This function is used to determine it. It builds a location object for the specified ‘x’ and returns a pointer to it.

Parameters:

ud – pointer to user-defined context data. Is supplied by linearray_t
x – number to map
lnnum – line number to initialize ‘lnnum’

Returns:

a freshly allocated object. See also PCF_MAKEPLACE_ALLOCATES

compare(t2: place_t) → int: Deprecated. Please consider compare2(const place_t *, void *) instead.

adjust(ud: void *) → None

Adjust the current location to point to a displayable object. This function validates the location and makes sure that it points to an existing object. For example, if the location points to the middle of an instruction, it will be adjusted to point to the beginning of the instruction.

Parameters:: ud – pointer to user-defined context data. Is supplied by linearray_t

prev(ud: void *) → bool

Move to the previous displayable location.

Parameters:: ud – pointer to user-defined context data. Is supplied by linearray_t
Returns:: success

next(ud: void *) → bool

Move to the next displayable location.

Parameters:: ud – pointer to user-defined context data. Is supplied by linearray_t
Returns:: success

beginning(ud: void *) → bool

Are we at the first displayable object?.

Parameters:: ud – pointer to user-defined context data. Is supplied by linearray_t
Returns:: true if the current location points to the first displayable object

ending(ud: void *) → bool

Are we at the last displayable object?.

Parameters:: ud – pointer to user-defined context data. Is supplied by linearray_t
Returns:: true if the current location points to the last displayable object

serialize() → None: Serialize this instance. It is fundamental that all instances of a particular subclass of of place_t occupy the same number of bytes when serialized.

id() → int

Get the place’s ID (i.e., the value returned by register_place_class())

Returns:: the id

name() → str

Get this place type name. All instances of a given class must return the same string.

Returns:: the place type name. Please try and pick something that is not too generic, as it might clash w/ other plugins. A good practice is to prefix the class name with the name of your plugin. E.g., “myplugin:srcplace_t”.

toea() → ida_idaapi.ea_t

Map the location to an ea_t.

Returns:: the corresponding ea_t, or BADADDR;

rebase(arg2: segm_move_infos_t const &) → bool

Rebase the place instance

Returns:: true if place was rebased, false otherwise

enter(arg2: uint32 *) → place_t *

Visit this place, possibly ‘unhiding’ a section of text. If entering that place required some expanding, a place_t should be returned that represents that section, plus some flags for later use by ‘leave()’.

Returns:: a place_t corresponding to the beginning of the section of text that had to be expanded. That place_t’s leave() will be called with the flags contained in ‘out_flags’ when the user navigates away from it.

leave(arg2: int) → None: Leave this place, possibly ‘hiding’ a section of text that was previously expanded (at enter()-time.)

compare2(t2: place_t, arg3: void *) → int

Compare two locations except line numbers (lnnum). This function is used to organize loops. For example, if the user has selected an range, its boundaries are remembered as location objects. Any operation within the selection will have the following look: for ( loc=starting_location; loc < ending_location; loc.next() ) In this loop, the comparison function is used.

Parameters:: t2 – the place to compare this one to.
Returns:: -1: if the current location is less than ‘t2’
Returns:: 0: if the current location is equal to than ‘t2’
Returns:: 1: if the current location is greater than ‘t2’

equals(t2: place_t, ud: void *) → bool

Compare two places for equality, ignoring line numbers (lnnum). This is semantically different than compare2, although by default it is implemented in terms of it for backwards-compatibility. compare2 implements a three-way comparison to see if two places sort less than, equal to, or grater than. This method actually looks for equality. Thus, t1->equals(t2, ud) implies t1->compare2(t2, ud) == 0, but the reverse is not always true. An example of this is for adjustable places that are sensitive to the x-cursor position, and need to compare differently as a result.

Returns:: true if the two places match / are equal.

deserialize(_in: bytevec_t const &) → bool

De-serialize into this instance. ‘pptr’ should be incremented by as many bytes as de-serialization consumed.

Returns:: whether de-serialization was successful

Chooser wrapper class.

Some constants are defined in this class. Please refer to kernwin.hpp for more information.

CH_MODAL: Modal chooser.

CH_MULTI: The chooser will allow multi-selection (only for GUI choosers). This bit is set when using the chooser_multi_t structure.

CH_NOBTNS: do not display ok/cancel/help/search buttons. Meaningful only for gui modal windows because non-modal windows do not have any buttons anyway. Text mode does not have them neither.

CH_RESTORE: restore floating position if present (equivalent of WOPN_RESTORE) (GUI version only)

CH_RENAME_IS_EDIT: triggering a ‘edit/rename’ (i.e., F2 shortcut) on a cell, should call the edit() callback for the corresponding row.

CH_BUILTIN_SHIFT

CH_BUILTIN_MASK: Mask for builtin chooser numbers. Plugins should not use them.

CH_HAS_DIRTREE: The chooser can provide a dirtree_t, meaning a tree-like structure can be provided to the user (instead of a flat table)

CH_HAS_DIFF: The chooser can be used in a diffing/merging workflow.

CHCOL_PLAIN: plain string

CHCOL_PATH: file path. TUI IDA will truncate excessive cell lengths starting at their beginning, and prepending the resulting text with “…” order to leave the filename visible

CHCOL_HEX: hexadecimal number

CHCOL_DEC: decimal number

CHCOL_EA: address

CHCOL_FNAME: function name. If a chooser column has this flag set and implements chooser_base_t::get_ea(), rows background colors will be automatically set to match the navigator’s “Library function”, “Lumina function” and “External symbol” colors

CHCOL_FORMAT: column format mask

CHCOL_DEFHIDDEN: column should be hidden by default

CHCOL_DRAGHINT: the column number that will be used to build hints for the dragging undo label. This should be provided for at most one column for any given chooser.

CHCOL_INODENAME: if CH_HAS_DIRTREE has been specified, this instructs the chooser that this column shows the inode name. This should be provided for at most one column for any given chooser.

NO_SELECTION = -1: there is no selected item

EMPTY_CHOOSER = -2: the chooser is initialized

ALREADY_EXISTS = -3: the non-modal chooser with the same data is already open

attribute is missing. The mandatory attributes are: flags, title, cols, OnGetSize(), OnGetLine(); For modal choosers it will return the selected item index (0-based), or NO_SELECTION if no selection, or EMPTY_CHOOSER if the OnRefresh() callback returns EMPTY_CHOOSER; For non-modal choosers it will return 0 or ALREADY_EXISTS if the chooser was already open and is active now;

OnGetEA(n)

Get the address of an element

When this function returns valid addresses:

If any column has the CHCOL_FNAME flag, rows will be colored according to the attributes of the functions who own those addresses (extern, library function, Lumina, … - similar to what the “Functions” widget does)
When a selection is present and the user presses <Enter> (<Shift+Enter> if the chooser is modal), IDA will jump to that address (through jumpto())

Multi line text control. This class inherits from textctrl_info_t. Thus the attributes are also inherited This control allows manipulating a multilinetext control

arg: Control argument value. This could be one element or a list/tuple (for multiple args per control)

free(): Free the control

form: Form string

controls: Dictionary of controls

title = None: The Form title. It will be filled when the form is compiled

modal = True: By default, forms are modal

openform_flags = 0: If non-modal, these flags will be passed to open_form. This is an OR’ed combination of the PluginForm.FORM_* values.

Free(): Frees all resources associated with a compiled form. Make sure you call this function when you finish using the form.

Add(name, ctrl, mkattr=True)

Low level function. Prefer AddControls() to this function. This function adds one control to the form.

Parameters:

name – Control name
ctrl – Control object
mkattr – Create control name / control object as a form attribute

FindControlById(id): Finds a control instance given its id

AddControls(controls, mkattr=True): Adds controls from a dictionary. The dictionary key is the control name and the value is a Form.Control object :param controls: The control dictionary

CompileEx(form)

Low level function. Compiles (parses the form syntax and adds the control) the form string and returns the argument list to be passed the argument list to ask_form().

The form controls are wrapped inside curly braces: {ControlName}.

A special operator can be used to return the index of a given control by its name: {id:ControlName}. This is useful when you use the STARTITEM form keyword to set the initially focused control. (note that, technically, the index is not the same as the ID; that’s because STARTITEM uses raw, 0-based indexes rather than control IDs to determine the focused widget.)

Parameters:: form – Compiles the form and returns the arguments needed to be passed to ask_form()
