Detailed Description

Functions that deal with the list of problems.

There are several problem lists. An address may be inserted to any list. The kernel simply maintains these lists, no additional processing is done.
The problem lists are accessible for the user from the View->Subviews->Problems menu item.
Addresses in the lists are kept sorted. In general IDA just maintains these lists without using them during analysis (except PR_ROLLED).

Function Documentation

◆ forget_problem()

bool forget_problem	(	'problist_id_t'	type,
		ida_idaapi.ea_t	ea )

Remove an address from a problem list 
    
@param type: problem list type
@param ea: linear address
@returns success

◆ get_problem()

ida_idaapi.ea_t get_problem	(	'problist_id_t'	type,
		ida_idaapi.ea_t	lowea )

Get an address from the specified problem list. The address is not removed from the list. 
    
@param type: problem list type
@param lowea: the returned address will be higher or equal than the specified address
@returns linear address or BADADDR

◆ get_problem_desc()

str get_problem_desc	(	'problist_id_t'	t,
		ida_idaapi.ea_t	ea )

Get the human-friendly description of the problem, if one was provided to remember_problem. 
    
@param t: problem list type.
@param ea: linear address.
@returns the message length or -1 if none

◆ get_problem_name()

str get_problem_name	(	'problist_id_t'	type,
		bool	longname = True )

Get problem list description.

◆ is_problem_present()

bool is_problem_present	(	'problist_id_t'	t,
		ida_idaapi.ea_t	ea )

Check if the specified address is present in the problem list.

◆ remember_problem()

None remember_problem	(	'problist_id_t'	type,
		ida_idaapi.ea_t	ea,
		str	msg = None )

Insert an address to a list of problems. Display a message saying about the problem (except of PR_ATTN,PR_FINAL) PR_JUMP is temporarily ignored. 
    
@param type: problem list type
@param ea: linear address
@param msg: a user-friendly message to be displayed instead of the default more generic one associated with the type of problem. Defaults to nullptr.

◆ was_ida_decision()

bool was_ida_decision ( ida_idaapi.ea_t ea )
